THE BRIGHT PATH

In a V-formation,

Over plains,

To the south, to the south

Fly the cranes.

How bright, how bright

Their path:

Only one of them is frightened, Gone astray.

I will lose my way for sure

In the mist,

I will fall behind my brothers,

I'll be missed.

The Smaller Grand-Hotel

Stay tuned to radio Moscow.

It's five in the morning.

- Gee. - Good morning, comrades.

- Morning. - Hi!

Let us begin our morning exercises.

Let us.

Straighten up,

Your chin turned up, good.

Quicker!

One, two, three.

Work with your hands.

One, two, three.

Exercise is over.

Tatyana. Give some milk to Misha.

I've given it to him already.

Now - running in place. One, two,

three, four!

Look lively!

Very good.

Mark time!

Move energetically!

And - breathe in and breathe out

through the nose.

Guys, relax.

Take deep breaths.

Mark time!

Tanya - peel the potatoes, put on the samovar.

Potatoes peeled, the samovar's in the process.

Move your hands energetically!

And now, comrades, have your water therapy.

After this take a walk in the fresh air.

Good bye, comrades.

Wow.

- A real Cinderella. - What?

You're like Cinderella.

How dare you, Mister!

In an old fairytale

It goes the word -

There lived two sisters,

And Cinderella was the third.

The first two sisters' life was nice and good.

And Cinderella did the chores, all covered in soot.

Exactly like you.

Oh, gee. I didn't notice.

Cigarettes "Moscow"

Don't be frightened.

You know me?

You are Mister Snub Nose.

No, my last name is Samokhin.

But they call you Snub Nose.

- You came from the country-side? - Yes.

- You scared me. - Oh, come on.

It's me who is afraid of you.

We reserved a room here.

I have the necessary papers.

You have the papers, but we don't have spare rooms.

But we made a reservation!

Yes. All rooms are occupied.

Hard charges for smoking

Anna, listen.

A gentleman arrived, handsome and stylish.

Pass me some sugar.

- Was he tall? - Yes.

- And in well-creased trousers. - Oh, really?

I'm not interested.

- Was he fair-haired? - You're lying you don't care.

Then I won't tell you at all.

Watch your tongue talking to your mistress!

How long do you have this maid?

One month. And she does everything her own way.

- As if she lived in a log-house. - Oh, indeed.

- Your last name is..? - Lebedev.

- Where did you come from? - Moscow.

Okay, let me check.

Yes, you are right.

Look at the calendar.

- Tell me the date. - April 27.

And the year?

- 1930. - Right.

In an old fairytale

It goes the word

There lived two sisters,

And Cinderella was the third.

I am sad like Cinderella,

Oh, my day is full of chores.

Tell me, when the good old fairy,

Will appear in my doors.

What did you say?

Nothing. I was singing.

When will you stop singing?

I will stop when I will.

You need a god spur in your side.

That's what you are doing

purring and purring all the time!

I'm not a cat, okay?

Oh, but you look like one.

- Watch your tongue. - Or else what?

Or else this...

Let me go!

Stop it!

Are you crazy or what?

This maid is behaving like a pug dog!

- Not like a maid! - Just you wait!

She was pinching!

- Did he hurt you? - I'll show him!

That shameless one!

- What's your name? - Tanya.

- And yours? - Alex...

- Alex... - Well...

- And who are you? - An engineer

- For how long? - Two months already.

- Aren't you scared? - Why?

I mean, to be an engineer?

I'm getting to used to it.

Why don't you clean my room?

I don't work for the inn,

I work for my mistress.

- You lived in a village? - Yes.

- Can you read? - No.

- Why don't you go to study? - cause I feel ashamed.

- Why? - Because what if

they send me away.

I can take you to a school, if you want.

You mean, you settle everyone in school?

No, I offer this

only to snub-nosed girls like you,

because they need to get education.

Hey, hey.

Stop crying, I haven't yet made up my mind to go to school.

Also, you would be better-off with an educated nurse.

Moscow is the capital of the USSR.

So now Moscow is...

is...

- The capital. - The capital.

The capital of what?

- The capital of what? - The capital of...

...of the Soviet Union.

... the capital of the Russian Federation.

Very good, Morozova.

Agrafena, shame on you not to know such a thing.

Moscow is the capital city? That's a pretty thing.

You are too confused.

And too shy.

Oh, how nervous you are.

Come in.

- Excuse me. - Come on in.

- Can you lend me smth to read? - Of course.

- Sit down. - Thank you.

- But you have many books. - I read all of them.

I envy you so much you are from Moscow.

- May I? - Of course.

Moscow...

The Bolshoi Theatre... "Carmen"...

May all the world to love belong ...

The law of laws, the sweetest song ...

You do not love me I don't care ...

One day I'll catch you in my snare ...

Our whole house will explode because of you!

Come in.

Alex...

Can't do a sum again?

Give it to me...

"8 sheets of white paper and 9 of colored paper,

One sheet of white paper costs four kopecks.

- 8 sheets all in all, right? - Right.

So, can we calculate the price of 8 sheets?

- Yes, we can. - How can we do this?

- Try to think. - I'm thinking.

About what?

That everything too smooth about her.

- Who do you mean? - My mistress.

- She knows all kind of things. - Do this sum.

I've already done it.

- Colored paper costs 6 kopecks. - So, what's the problem?

- Do you like her? - Like whom?

- My mistress. - Your mistress?

Not a bit.

Really? And she would go...

About catching you in her snare.

- What are you thinking about? - About this sum...

About how much the paper costs...

Here!

Take your things you don't work here anymore!

We'll be all right!

Who is there?

Sorry, do you need a chief manager?

Stop joking.

I'm serious. My mistress threw me out.

- For what? - Because I told her

who she was.

Oh, come on.

Well, come on in.

You may sleep on this sofa.

Right here?

- Marya Sergeevna. - Have some sleep,

and tomorrow I'll take you to your new work.

Where?

You'll go where I'll say.

But where to?

You'll go to our factory.

Oh, Marya Sergeevna...

How can I help you?

I brought this beauty to work here.

Well, we do need such snub-nosed beauties.

- What's your name? - Tanya.

- Your last name? - Morozova.

- Speak louder. - Tatiana Morozova.

You may begin your work.

Sweep the floor.

Let's run to the canteen before they drink all milk.

No, I can't. I've some public work to do.

Agrafena!

Agrafena!

- How many kids do you have? - Why asking?

There will be presents from the Komsomol.

I've thirteen kids. Too many?

No. There are 500 presents all in all.

Wow, there will be enough for everybody.

Thank you.

How many toys for how many grandchildren?

Six... cans of beer.

- I'm serious. - Write down: three toys.

Why don't you ask this comrade here?

Tanya?

How are you?

I'm fine.

What about you?

- Are you married? - No.

- Do you have any children? - No.

- That's nice. - Nice? Why?

Because there is a shortage of presents.

You, cooing creatures.

Shoo!

If a river is bound in ice,

You can make a hole.

But if someone loves you not,

You can't move his ice-cold soul.

Do not follow me, Nikita,

You should better leave.

For your heart can hold no love,

Your heart is like a sieve.

Girls, don't let the handsome boys

Squeeze your hand,

Handsome boys your sadness

Cannot understand.

What do you want, rummaging in Tanya's chest?

I'm looking for a beret.

I will wear lipstick,

I'll make my eyebrows thin enough

Oh, it takes so much pain,

When you are in love.

- Don't touch Tanya's things. - It's none of your business.

You'll have to have a duel,

exactly like Pushkin and... d'Anthes.

Klava, so what you're a beauty

and a member of the trade union.

Professor, ha.

He is joking, and my heart

Beats so rapidly today.

He jokes today, but tomorrow

"Guide of a beginning weaver"

I will have my way.

Who made this mess of my shoe strings?

You crazy! What have you done?

- I didn't do this on purpose! - No, you did.

Oh, I'm so sorry.

Do you fancy for a sprinkle of my cologne?

- No. - It's all yours.

You're crazy!

I will never be your date,

It's against my rule.

Oops, I'm afraid to fall behind,

To fall behind

in school...

Don't be scared.

Is Maria home?

Where is she then?

Why are you sitting all alone here?

Is it forbidden?

No.

Let's sit together.

No!

Who is there?

So, you brought a defender?

How clever of you.

Good bye.

- Who was coughing there? - It's me.

- Who is there? - It was me coughing.

Peter, are you a bird to roost here?

Tanyusha, be my wife.

I'm not your wife yet, and you are already spying on me.

- I wasn't spying. - Then what were you doing?

I don't drink, I'm not pugnacious,

I'm like an angel in the sky

It would be a big mistake

Not to marry such a guy.

- What is cracking? - I've nothing to do with this.

It's the staircase cracking.

Tanyusha, be quick with saying "yes",

because this staircase is shaky.

My "yes" would be shaky, too.

Oh, don't look with such despise,

In your eyes I want to rise.

From any point of view,

I'm made for you.

- "To start the machine..." - What did you throw out?

- Nothing. - It was something real heavy.

It was a trifle.

To start the weaving machine,

put the toggle of the central axis

into the middle position.

Then take the shuttle,

put the bobbin on the peg,

and arrange the thread.

Okay...

Then insert the shuttle into shed,

by firmly pushing it against the picking arm.

After this you can turn on the machine.

Aha!

- Alex... - What's the matter?

I was warning you.

She made a mess of it. I turned off the machines.

- What's their item number? - Eight.

Numbers 8 aren't good. Even veteran workers can't cope with them.

I couldn't let a fresher work on good machines, could I.

- But... - Alex,

you are too partial to Morozova.

- Mr Kurnakov! - Mr Lebedev!

Club

Lucky souls,

cause no one turned off their machines.

Let's go.

So what... So what...

Tanya,

what are you doing here?

Guarding the lamppost.

- May I sit down? - I don't own this bench, do I.

Well...

What else?

Back in the inn, your eyes seemed to be different.

Maybe the trade union provided me with new ones?

Maybe they provided you with this new character, too?

- Happy New Year. - Happy New Year.

What a wonderful night.

Let's have a dance.

- Let's take a walk? - Okay.

Don't.

Please don't.

I said, stop it!

You...

Tanya, what's wrong?

- What happened? - He...

What did he do?

He kissed me.

But do you like him?

Of course I do.

So, what else do you want, you silly?

Oh, he is an engineer,

an educated person...

And I am a nobody.

So, I can do without him.

Calm down.

Soon you will be a weaver, respected by everybody.

Hey, calm down.

Some weaver that I proved to be today.

Let this factory go to hell...

Ah, fire, fire!

A fire! Look!

Let's go and look at the fire.

Oh, don't I love when something is on fire!

Tanya, let's run!

Tatiana...

Ah, you at last.

Please, hurry up.

I can't. I'm lame since I fell off that staircase.

You seemed to be lame in the other leg.

- Oh, really? - One should stick to his legend.

I always forget.

Ah, Peter!

Just you wait,

if I see you necking with some rogue.

Happy New Year!

Sorry. Take this.

Tatiana!

Tanya!

Tanya!

I'll find you all the same!

Who is there?

Maria, why are you crying?

It's nothing.

Someone kissed you?

He wants to kill me.

- Who? - Fedor.

Promise to keep mum about this.

Of course.

I was in the club with Fedor.

I saw you running after him.

I thought it was another girl, but then he whistled to...

- To whom? - To Vasily Scherbaty.

- The storekeeper? - And they went to stock rooms.

And I followed them.

And what next?

Stop crying. Tell me what happened.

They stole ten crates, they hid them,

and then they set the storehouse to fire.

And what happened next?

Fedor, Fedor dear!

It's good you are here, Fedor.

- I hope you'll shut up? - No, I won't.

Why don't you like me so much?

I remember your evil deeds in our home village,

and I was scared of you. But now I am not.

- So, I should be scared of you? - Yes.

- And you are the boss here? - Yes.

- And it was all your property? - Yes.

Come on.

Time for you to answer.

I coped with tougher nuts.

So, they are necking.

They are necking!

I'll show him!

- Oh, my God. - Peter,

- he will kill you! - No, he won't!

He left me barefaced...

And for what?

Because I didn't let him embrace her?

No, he was strangling me!

- He set the factory to fire. - Are you serious?

Long time since I gave someone a kiss..

- It's not funny. - Don't be so self-conscious.

Don't move.

Attention!

Tanya Morozova's exploit

Records in Donbas

Record-breaking movement

The number of its members will increase tenfold

New people, new work norms

My heart beats so rapidly today...

I will have my way...

- Tanya, what happened? - Oh, my God!

She is totally crazy!

Let me out!

We shall report to the Party committee.

- Operator? - I'll tell Maria.

- Maria? - Stop teasing me!

Stop, Klava.

- What about 16 machines? - For this, you know...

It already worked, on 16 machines.

Did you talk with Lebedev?

And it worked?

- I'll be off. - Hold on.

Semen, for god's sake.

It's the year 1935, okay?

- I didn't know that, eh. - Obviously you didn't.

What do you mean?

Do you read newspapers?

You mean, about Stakhanov?

Yes, many machines is a tendencey.

But I don't have such people.

We'll find them.

But tell me your opinion.

It's ok with me. But it needs consideration.

- You mean, the budget? - Yes, and get an ok.

- From whom? - It needs permission.

- Whose permission? - All pros and cons.

- And? - To insure against problems.

- Insure? - Yes. Shucks...

Your enthusiasts,

will work for a week and then will drop the subject,

but we shall have to answer for the plan.

- Exactly. - See?

I'll write to the regional committee,

maybe they'll put you to reason there.

Go ahead, write to them,

or even to the Soviet of Commissars.

To the Soviet of Commissars.

For the attention of Comrade Molotov

A weaver can work only on 8 machines.

Our country needs bigger outputs,

so I decided to work on 16 machines.

I think it will prove very useful...

Semen,

that girl is here, from the night shift, Morozova...

- Bring her in. - Come in.

Who allowed you?

I know that Kusacheva is on a sick leave.

And her machines were standing idle.

Who allowed you to work on 16 machines?

But I had a permission.

- Whose permission? - The boss's.

- The boss's? - Yes, the deputy boss's,

deputy boss of the department.

- You mean Lebedev? - Yes.

Summon engineer Lebedev

from weaving department.

What's the problem?

You should be happy! But instead you're angry!

May I put in a word edgewise?

I'm the chief manager here!

Lebedev. To the director.

What happened?

A mischief in your department.

- Is Morozova from your department? - Yes.

- She's in for a big hiding. - Impossible!

Natasha, go and find Maria, please,

and tell her to come to the manager's office.

For this escapade

she should be heavily reprimanded.

Today she works on one machine,

and tomorrow on another.

And who will answer for the machines?

- Exactly. - That's a wrong approach.

- Absolutely not. - He is wrong!

- Mr Alex! - Mr Nikolai.

- I will be answerable. - You're underestimating me.

- I'm the deputy head. - And I'm the foreman.

I allowed this happen, so I'll answer for Tanya.

- We'll live and see. - We'll live and see.

Well, let us listen to what Morozova will say.

- Speak up. - Well...

- I didn't think it'll come to that. - What did you think?

I thought it will come useful.

What's going on?

They are blaming me,

for working on 16 machines.

Who is blaming her?

We have been looking for you.

- So, you didn't look good enough... - Well...

Semen Afanasievich, a telegram.

- What telegram? - From Moscow.

- Give it to me then. - It's for her.

- For whom? - Morozova, a telegram for you.

For some reason there is a telegram for you.

"From Molotov..."

Oh, my God!...

Why are you crying? You should be happy.

But I am happy.

- Alex... - Nikolai.

I don't want you to be in trouble.

Alex, my dear sir,

I'm a veteran worker, so they can't throw me out.

But...

- ...It was my blame. - Don't listen to him.

- I gave the permission. - It was my blame.

As the immediate members of this endeavour,

accept my congratulations.

- What? - Why didn't I do this?

Why didn't I congratulate you first...

They didn't read the telegram.

Of course. Here.

Oh, my God...

You see?

Now I agree with you, Nikolai.

- It was of your doing. - No, it was of yours.

I have nothing to do with this.

You guys will have to make a speech.

I have nothing to do with this.

All credit goes to Tanya...

Sorry, to Miss Tanya Morozova.

So address your applause to her.

Address your cheers to her.

I have nothing to do with this.

But who blessed me to do this?

Who help me? He did.

And also engineer Lebedev.

And I did nothing special. Anyone can do this.

And I can work on 30 machines!

I say this for record. I'll work on 30 machines.

I wish my mother could see:

Look, mother, it's me!

Look, mother, it's me!

Not a lame duck from a country-side,

But someone famous and pride!

- Tatiana... - Yes?

- You received a bonus? - Yes, and heaps of presents.

And you're moving to a new apartment?

What's wrong with your moustache?

It's because of that incident back in winter,

so now my moustache grows askew.

I'll pay a visit to you, ok?

Very well, Peter.

Tanya is good as a whole,

Her belongings and all.

Oh, my wild flower, my life,

We'll be man and wife.

Yipe, they combed me...

...and washed me...

A sample of women's wear cloth.

An agricultural theme, "tractor" design.

Well, very good.

Do you have any industrial motifs?

- Industrial? - Yes.

Well, the oil rigs motifs.

On the waist line we can put,

factories and plants.

- Too little smoke. - What?

- Too little smoke. - We can make it denser.

It's not the point.

I am astounded by these new work norms,

this race, a thing I have seen

neither in Lyon nor in Manchester

famous for their weaving industry.

Manchester is no argument for them.

They are after records.

This is absurd!

And that weaver is real obsessed.

- You mean Morozova? - Yes. Did you hear?

She demands 150 machines.

- 150 machines? - Yes.

But where shall we put this many?

Exactly.

We can't break the walls, to pamper her fantasies.

We shall break the walls.

We shall turn everything upside down for this to happen!

This is what Ordzhonikidze said:

We shall pull down things obsolete!

I'm afraid to fall behind,

to fall short at work...

Kurnakov? Listen...

Are all the machines working?

Were they turned on by the schedule?

Well, well...

I wonder...

Maybe it's all too normal.

Today it's you,

And then it's me.

Do not complain ...

And catch your luck.

Well, we set a record!

Our record!

Comrade, don't be bogged down,

Be sure of yourself and make your story.

Labor is our honor,

Is our honor and our glory.

Whether you work machinery,

Or take up mountaineering.

There is a dream for you, So go and make it true,

Live for a dream!

We'll never stop,

The land and sea are ours,

Passion of heart,

Will always melt the ice.

We are holding high,

Our dear country's colours,

All through the time,

We march with shining eyes!

She's coming out!

Tanya, take this on behalf,

of our komsomol organization.

From our heart. Take it!

And this is from me.

Oh, thank you!

- Great for you! - Nikolai!

Alex!

Congratulations.

Thank you.

- Tanya, let's go. - Wait.

Oh, what a lucky girl.

Record-breaker T. Morozova

Some record-breaker...

- What's wrong? - It has smth to do with the paper.

Oh, I'm so upset.

Look at this.

I can see all right.

No, look at this. Kurnakov gave it to me.

The world record.

Weaver Nyura Zvantseva made the 103.6 norm

on 200 machines.

Wonderful!

And this made you upset?

Yes. Because I wanted...

Get up,

and put yourself in order.

- And tidy up the room, too. - No, I won't.

Get up, you silly girl.

For what sake do you work, for your own sake,

or for your country?

Of course, for the country.

So, you should be happy,

there is another record-breaker.

I am happy.

You're like a certain person we both know.

- Who do you mean? - Our chief manager Dorokhov.

When he learnt a certain weaver,

produced more fabric than usual...

- Please, don't. - Why not?

Because I'm ashamed of myself.

For the first time you're ashamed with good reason.

Where are you going?

I want to send a telegram to Zvantseva.

I want to congratulate her.

Send my regards to her.

Very well.

And tell the chief manager

- I'll work on 240 machines. - Great for you!

- We've a lot of news. - Dorokhov was fired!

- And who will be in his stead? - Lebedev, our engineer.

Alex Lebedev. Do you know him?

Maria!

- An award... - For whom?

To Tanya, see?

It's for you, see?

She will be awarded!

Impossible...

Now they'll invite you to Moscow.

I can't believe it.

Cigarettes "Moscow"

- Feeling nervous? - Yes, very nervous.

I have never received awards before.

You were here many times, as I can see.

And you got used to it.

Frankly speaking, it always makes me nervous.

So, let's stick together. Together it's not so frightening.

Let us.

Do you polish your awards?

No, they shine by themselves.

...to award Tatyana Morozova

with an order of Lenin.

About lots of magic ...

Fairytales are told ...

But even in reality ...

Miracles unfold.

I'll become an engineer ...

Like in a fairy tale ...

I will study though, I fear ...

How I fear to fail.

Once there lived a poor lassie ...

A maidservant, as it goes ...

- And she was... - Like Cinderella ...

Soot was even on her nose!

Not a sorceress grey-haired ...

Once came out of the blue ...

And hurried to the girl's rescue ...

Was just a woman that she knew.

She encouraged Cinderella ...

And she helped her with advice ...

And the girl made a career ...

To her own big surprise.

And she worked excellently ...

Like comrade Stakhanov taught ...

Then received Cinderella ...

From Kalinin a reward.

Witness the marvellous events ...

That come to pass today ...

So that before reality ...

There pales the fairytale.

I know what happened in the past.

At future I want my glance to cast.

Tanya ... Tanya ...

Tanya, look ...

All the roads in this bright blue ...

Belong to you.

Oh, what a big world ...

A promised land of joy ...

And this is to where ...

we shall fly.

Listen, my land is singing ...

That any dreamer can fulfil his dream ...

And any hero may commit exploit ...

And any scientist may gain esteem.

What was a dream, what was a song ...

Now to reality belong.

May all the plans find their way ...

Into contemporary day.

Our home is the USSR ...

That stretches wide and far ...

Welcome to the All-Union Agricultural Exhibition

Tanya is coming!

Maria, has Tanya changed much?

- You'll see yourself. - Has she asked about me?

She did, many times.

Dear friends!

Today is a big day.

A big event at our All-Union Agricultural Exhibition.

Will take place today.

We open a new pavillion,

where cotton workers,

and weavers,

can demonstrate the results,

of their wonderful work.

Let us give the word,

to the deputy of the Supreme Soviet,

a merited weaver,

and engineer Tatiana Morozova.

Marvel at our country,

At our records and breath-taking speeds,

A sign of our force, Our ruby star shines forth,

Across the oceans it sends its beam,

For we fulfilled our dream!

We'll never stop ...

The land and sea are ours ...

Passion of heart ...

Will always melt the ice.

Oh, people can make miracles.

Oh, yes, it's a wonderful machine.

I don't mean machine, I mean Tatiana.

Which of them is Tatiana?

You, hopeless Onegin.

Bunta!

It's her!

Old man, step away. Lady, will you excuse me.

- Say "cheese"! - No, it's not her.

Take it easy, it's magnesium.

It's her all right, if there is a damage.

- Alex... - Hi.

You are late.

Yes, I am.

There she is...

- Nikolai... - Shh...

You are late.

- My God, Taldykin! - Yes, it's me!

- Tatiana? - Yes, it's me.

Tanyusha, are you ready to get married now?

Yes, Peter, and I'm so happy!

Everything is clear.

She doesn't love me ...

Fly, my birdie, fear not ...

You are not alone ...

Even by the snow-storm caught ...

Friends will keep you warm.

Fly, my birdie, sing a song ...

Sing it merrily ...

You'll grow stronger with every day ...

The flight will make you free.
