MAN SHALL NOT LlVE BY BREAD ALONE...

Stanislav GOVORUKHlN's film

- They are come! - Thank God.

- Hi. - Hi, Shura.

Nadezhda Sergeevna!

Welcome! Welcome, Leonid lvanovich.

- Waiting for us, eh? - Of course.

You've been long in coming.

Gee, a new fur-coat.

- Do you like it? - Of course!

You owe us a 'new fur-coat' drink then.

l've a present for you too.

All right.

Lots of snow.

Mother, do you hear me? We are come.

Of course l hear you, l'm not deaf.

This is Drozdov speaking.

What is this?

Black heel, an in thing.

And try this on too.

l'll dance and reel, flash my black heel!

Where is my driver with his landrover?

- Gone to pick some sour cream. - Hey:

don't send them on errands without my permission!

Or l'll tell them not to obey you.

You, commander! Command over your new wife.

Turning up your tail on your mother, eh.

What about the dinner?

'Dinner'...

They're transferring you to Moscow. Will you take me along?

No one will accept us without you in Moscow.

How do you do, Leonid lvanovich.

Welcome back.

- So, leaving to Moscow? - l need to see Ganichev.

There is that inventor, he came about pipes.

l'm busy!

Tell him l'm sorry. Let him drop at my place...

...on weekend.

Turn towards the fuel warehouse.

'Spare not Sweat or Life for your Country!'

Move to the very middle!

Bashashkin!

- l'm here! - Come up closer.

- The heating pipe burst. - What?

l can't hear you! Come up closer!

Don't let us shout across the yard.

The pipe burst.

lt burst before my departure. lt's no big news.

- We'll repair it tomorrow. - And something else.

Have some firewood brought to that inventor,

l mean Lopatkin. A couple of cubic metres.

- Leonid lvanovich... - Sign it off.

You're a fuel god here.

Mommie...

One should foresee his chances.

Hi, Dmitry.

You teach school again?

No, l just came here on business.

Well then, see you.

Well, Syanova, how do we translate this phrase?

'Soviet Union' - do you know what it means?

The USSR.

What does the USSR mean for you and for all of us?

Our homeland.

The Soviet Union is my homeland.

Good for you. You get a four mark.

But next time... What is it, Rimma?

Yesterday you put me a bad mark for prompting.

Syanova is having prompts from Vyaltseva and Khanapetova.

- No. - Silence, girls.

Let Syanova settle our doubts.

lf you had prompts, l'll put you a bad mark, too.

l had prompts.

Take your place.

l put you a three mark, for your honesty.

Next time l won't pity you.

- Nadezhda Sergeevna! - We came about Syanova.

Theirs is a big and poor family.

She has to do the chores, that's why she studies poorly.

- We're helping her. - Good for you.

Only help her rather than by prompting.

- Where does she live? - At the end of Akkermanovka.

Go.

The guests are all uppers - it's like a region council meeting.

And that hefty guy!..

They say he came from Moscow on a plane.

Don't be such a feather brain. The town has no aerodrome.

A skidded plane landed. l saw myself from afar.

The guards won't let me step closer. He must be a big bug.

No grudge for my having poached your best experts?

You must understand it was not my whim,

but a governmental task l had to carry out.

So, thanks for your help and your welcome.

And l wish you success

at your new ministerial post.

lt's hard bread that befell you, Leonid lvanovich.

Here's to you.

May you be happy.

Be sure and come for a-hunting, Rostislav Petrovich.

Nice parts, ours.

l'll come with great pleasure.

- Will they give you a flat? - l think so.

Flats at Peschnaya street have low ceilings.

But they build nice ones along Kaluzhskoye highway.

Let's make some room for the ravioli!

- At last! - Ravioli!

- Urals' recipe. - Sit down, don't fuss.

l'll first put them on the table.

There's some military fellow that came to you.

Not 'fellow', you hill billy, it's a 'man'.

l came on weekened, but l chose the wrong moment as l can see.

No, come on in.

We don't let guests leave without being welcomed.

- But l... - Don't be shy.

lt's all our people here.

- How do you do. - More people coming.

- How do you do, Dmitry. - Good evening, Nadezhda.

Take my place here.

Nadya, treat the guest.

- Some vodka? - All right.

l am from the expert commission,

lnstitute of Casting.

Not long ago l received

a project of a new tube-casting machine,

it's very much like what you are doing.

Here is to your health.

By the way, that man is from Muzga, too.

What can that mean?

Please meet the author of the project.

- Dmitry Lopatkin. - Pleased to meet you.

What is your opinion of another machine,

the one built by Avdeev?

lt's an old say in casting.

No, it's a real contemporary thing.

This machine is a result of collective effort,

unlike yours, that of a loner.

l'm a loner, but not a selfish one.

Thanks, but l must go.

- Did you take offence? - Good bye.

- Eat something. - Dmitry Alexeevich!

lt's disrespect towards the hostess!

- Dmitry Alexeevich! - l'm sorry.

- But... - l'm sorry.

He was shell-shocked at the front.

Hence this die-hard attitude.

Here's to your health.

Everyone's wrong, but he's a saint.

Why this anguish? He could draw his machine,

teach physics, get his ration cards,

but he must needs to be a martyr,

to prove he is smarter than academician Avdeev.

The oak forest is rustling...

How do you do, Nadezhda Sergeevna.

Hi, Sima.

You came to see us?

Yes.

Come on in.

Hi.

Hi. Come on in.

Mom, Masha is kicking me again.

Hush. Take another place.

Come and have some of our baked potatoes.

No, l came on business.

- What business? - l'm Sima's teacher.

l came to ask you

to relieve Sima from some home chores.

But l can see now it's impossible.

Yes, that's how it is.

l myself have to take some overtime job.

Her mother is good for nothing.

Because she is ill.

But we have another mistress here.

Do you care for some fresh milk?

The housework is on her shoulders. Step to that part of the room,

it's lighter there.

Meet our permanent tenant.

- Dmitry Alexeevich. - Hi.
