Used at will for half a century, the term "chestideciatniki" ["Those of the sixties"] was nevertheless, according to the very words of its inventor Stanislav Rassadine, only a pseudonym of this period which is designated by many ways: liberalisation, thaw, times of hope. And the heroes of this era populate novels, poems, philosophical reflections with their contradictory signs of enthusiasm and judgment, condescension, even contempt. The film is a sentimental look at an unlost generation.
