Galina Umpelyova

About the post-war years in a small town in the Urals, where fate brought the Kalmyk boy Jirgalu. He will soon have to face the hatred of war-bitten locals. Hungry times force the boy to look for money for food, not disdaining theft. But a friend appears, nicknamed Bee. Possessing the talent of a painter, Bee opens the world of beauty to her friend. But an early death cut short his existence on earth, leaving a permanent mark in Jirgala’s memory.

"Let us part - while we‘re good," Bagrat says to the peasants who have sheltered him, bleeding, from his pursuers. Let's part before any of you betray me... Love and hatred, meanness and courage, betrayal and self-sacrifice - everything that a romantic, adventurous plot requires (and that is also found in everyday life!).
