Я стану капитаном

Three young army members come to congratulate a veteran of the Great Patriotic War on the holiday. He shares memories of his wartime childhood in Siberia, telling stories about the small and big feats of his friends.

The 14-year-old Nikita Trunov has a dangerous and interesting hobby - he conquers high-rise buildings. Mom, fearing for her son, sends him to the Mining School camp to take care of his hobby. Nikita immediately becomes a real star in the camp: he climbs the climbing wall the fastest and seems to be not afraid of anything at all. However, defiant behavior and unwillingness to obey the rules leads Nikita to mortal danger.
