Children of the Pamirs
The action takes place in the early 20s in a mountainous village in the Pamirs, where people live in almost primitive poverty and scarcity. A detachment of Red Army soldiers comes here. The commander tells the residents that from now on they will live according to the laws of the Soviet government. The squad soon leaves, leaving only one person. He organizes a school for the children and becomes its first teacher. For the first time, children see the globe and learn that the earth is round. And they are learning to read and write for the first time... Based on Mirsaid Mirshakar's poem "Lenin in the Pamirs".
