About Through the Grass Barefoot
After the army, Nikolai returned to his native village. Not wanting to put up with the fact that people are leaving their homes, the hero goes to teach at a technical school that trains tractor drivers for the village.
Directed by Anton Vasilyev, Through the Grass Barefoot leans on a strong ensemble — Yuriy Zlydnev, Anastasiya Belova, Vladimir Anikin — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1987.
