NR"Almost everyone in our village drinks," "everyone who lives here is drunk and alcoholic," "they steal all sorts of things, then they sell them, they drink everything." This is how the little residents of the Ivanovo region talk about their village. They talk casually, not seeing anything special in it. No one, neither children nor adults, is surprised that two boys, abandoned by an alcoholic mother, live nearby. The children run the farm themselves, keep goats, and repair the roof. Another thing is strange to the villagers — the boys do not drink or smoke. This is really rare in the Russian countryside.

NRThe film is about street children who live permanently at Moscow railway stations. Bums, as they are called in the militia. You don't have to study, you don't have to clean up after yourself, you don't have to report to anyone. They don't want to go to school, to an orphanage, or to their parents. They walk, beg, steal, and swear. With the money they collect, they buy tubes of glue, squeeze the glue out of them into plastic bags and sniff its contents for days. They hold such an "inflatable balloon" in their mouth, breathe into it, and poisoning their brains, they catch "glitches".

Shahverdiyev's film shows bright and cheerful people from whom you can learn not only to celebrate Victory Day, but also to Live.
