Contents/Summary

Summary
The film is set in 1957 in a small port town on the edge of the Soviet empire. The bright beaming eyes of Konyok and Lara - a simple-hearted restaurant cook and his waitress girlfriend - follow the movement of the first sputnik with delight. The film’s main protagonist is a “simple Soviet man.” His alter-ego, friend-enemy, the mysterious Gherman with a strange name and even stranger behavior appears out of nowhere and is prepares to escape from the Soviet Union. He practices sports, swims in icy water, learns a single English phrase about political asylum, and finally seduces Konjok’s girlfriend in order to gain access to foreign ships.
