Vasily Shevelilkin

Valya is the eldest daughter of a hereditary pilot. She ends up in a flight school, but her real calling is photography. The girl is torn between family traditions and her dreams until she meets a talented cadet, the best pilot at the school, who helps her decide on her future.

The mid-60s, the time of the "thaw" after the terrible Stalin years. There was a "golden youth" - dudes in trousers with a pipe, jazz "on the ribs", the first farcers. Two blockheads cheerfully while away, trying the delights of adulthood - dancing, wine, girls. But in the end, everyone chooses his life path.
