The ancient city of Soligalich, as if frozen in space and time…The city is an open-air museum, with a beautiful and majestic temple architecture fading into oblivion. There is still no gas heating in the city, and the smell of clean snow and stove smoke is in the streets. In the sapogo-katalny shop, which stands on the site of the former temple, women manually create felt boots. They work hard and hard, give birth and raise children! And each has its own destiny…Unique Russian women, worthy of the brush of the best artists, the guardians of the ancient craft, the ancient tradition. The backbone of our country, its essence and salt.

This documentary promoting the joys of life in a Soviet village centers on the activities of the Young Pioneers. These children are constantly busy, pasting propaganda posters on walls, distributing hand bills, exhorting all to "buy from the cooperative" as opposed to the Public Sector, promoting temperance, and helping poor widows. Experimental portions of the film, projected in reverse, feature the un-slaughtering of a bull and the un-baking of bread.
