The Village Photographer

As a result of trauma at birth, Vera Kazakova became disabled and can move freely. But she knew by her will change the course of her destiny and find happiness.

The heroes of the film "Backyard" pensioners Nikolai Nikolaevich Churin, Valentina Fedorovna Pikova and the Shatkov family live in the Vyatka hinterland, and each in their own way confront the circumstances in which they found themselves by the will of fate and history.

At the end of autumn, the first Vyatka's farmers Alexander Leonidovich and Raisa Nikiforovna Orlovsky will arrive at their former estate to say goodbye forever to the farm, where they spent the best and most difficult years of their lives. Years of litigation with a neighboring collective farm led to the decline of their family farm. The attempt of the children of Alexei, Nadezhda and Tatyana to revive life on the farm failed, and the younger Orlovskys are forced to finally move to the city. It is not easy for former farmers to find themselves in a city life that is alien to them. The farm still remains a place where they were truly happy.

The film is based on the love story of a Russian woman, Claudia Novikova, and a Japanese, Yasaburo Khachia, who was serving time in Stalin's camps on false charges of espionage against the USSR.
