In 1946 a soldier fathers a child and dies before his birth. Six years later, the mother and the child meet a handsome soldier in a train. An incredible story of much deceptions, heartbreaks and betrayals ensue. Chukhraj masterfully depicts at a personal level what could be a keen portrayal of the larger society’s emotional state of being in post-war Russia. –Olive Films
