Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This rare Soviet-Kazakh co-production captures a specific moment of glasnost-era children's filmmaking, when even tween romances needed state approval.
Director Amanbek Alpiyev made only two features; this and a 1987 drama also starring Natalya Arinbasarova, suggesting a very small professional circle in Alma-Ata cinema.
