Drama of a man who tried to live a new life. Yegor Prokudin is a child of a street who grew up in a criminal gang. While he was free, he did not lose his innocent, joyful heart, but many years in prison have taken away his joy in living. The film opens on the occasion of his release from prison. Soon, he discovers love with a village peasant girl, Lyuba, who was lettering him in jail and restores his will to live and fills him with an enthusiasm for rural life. There are dark shadows on his way for better being – his past and his old mother he never visited from childhood times. Their idyll is short-lived, as his former associates will not leave him alone. —http://sovietmovies.blogspot.com/2010/05/vasili-shukshin-kalina-krasnaya-aka-red.html
