My Destiny Is KamAZ

Klavdia Vavilova, a Red Army cavalry commissar, is waylaid by an unexpected pregnancy. She stays with a Jewish family to give birth and is softened somewhat by the experience of family life.

Two old ladies live in a French chateau. When one of them dies, her sister, who lives in Moscow, inherits the property, which soon ends up in the hands of Japanese businessmen.

The film tells the story of the construction of the largest industrial project of the Five-Year Plan — the Kama Auto City — in the early 1970s. It highlights the efforts of the Komsomol organization in organizing labor and everyday life for the youth, the lives of the workers, the conditions on the construction site, and the management’s attitude toward the builders.
