About It Was Behind the Narva Outpost
In St. Petersburg, behind the Narva outpost, there is great excitement - the revolutionary Nechaev has appeared, who will incite the workers to fight. Neither the policeman, nor the policeman, nor the owner of the tavern - no one knows what he looks like. But everyone is determined to catch him.
Directed by Viktor Okuntsov, It Was Behind the Narva Outpost leans on a strong ensemble — Leonid Serebrennikov, Tatyana Kulish, Yury Prokofyev — 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 comedy titles of 1981.
