About A Horseman over the City
Schoolboy Kirill has only one flaw—he wears glasses. So when he meets his classmate Aina, he hides them in his pocket and, whenever she asks him about them, he claims he forgot them at home. Meanwhile, Kirill's mother believes that his only flaw is that he always says what he thinks. However, their points of view are not entirely different. One day, Kirill will find a true friend — an old watchmaker who fought in World War II. The boy will be surprised and delighted to learn that Aina is his granddaughter.
Directed by Igor Shatrov, A Horseman over the City leans on a strong ensemble — Valentina Scheglova, Misha Makarov, Ivan Lapikov — 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 1966.
