Plot synopsis
Leningrad at the end of the 50s. Ligovka, the city’s riff-raff area.
The tough life of the dwellers of legendary Ligovka’s is shown in the film: young heroes are struggling for life really seriously and dramatically.
But this toughness is required to emphasize the cheerfulness and energy of the heroes, their aspiration for future, no matter what kind of future was to come.
The element of dancing which makes the heroes so overwhelmed with energy that they walk and talk capering and start to dance every time they have a chance to – is one side of Ligovka, and on the other side the characters from heroes’ dreams and ideas move, the characters that are born from the mystical ground of Saint-Petersburg, the city where “the Sun shines in a special way and statues grow from the houses”.
