Give Us Men!

Igor Sokolov has been acting as pioneer leader for children for years in a class five grades below him. Now, in tenth grade, he decides he must enroll to try to become an actor. The children are devastated and try to change his mind. Instead of try to be an actor, he should change his mind and study in order to be a future teacher. They are aware that not them but his future students will appreciate it. With that goal in mind, they create Igor's resume and go to teacher training college to try to publicize Igor's talent as an educator. Will they achieve their goal? That's something that shouldn't be told; better you try to discover it in the film.

Directed by Radomir Vasilevsky, Give Us Men! leans on a strong ensemble — Boris Shuvalov, Vanya Fyodorov, Andrei Yarygin — 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 family titles of 1986.
