 | |  | At Home Among Strangers, Stranger at Home | | | | Cast: Mihalkov Nikita, Bogatyryov Yuri, Shakurov Sergei, Porokhovshchikov Alexander, Kaidanovsky Alexander, Raikin Konstantin, Kaliagin Alexander | An unenviable lot fell to the Red Army soldier Shilov: he is being suspected of stealing gold. In the hungry 1920s, the young Soviet Republic's government searches for gold all over the country, to buy for it bread from abroad. And now, the collected valuables disappeared from the armored and well-guarded train car on their way to Moscow. Shilov learns that the valuables have been stolen by the bandits. To restore his good reputation, Shilov has to infiltrate the band. To find out where the stolen gold is kept, he must be at home among the strangers. A debut of the world-famous director Nikita Mikhalkov, this film is an excellent model of a "western", having a very ingenious plot, and, most importantly, being a hymn to men's true friendship.
