A film-construct, assembled from archival footage of the 1920s and 1930s, preserving memories of the construction of a new life and lifestyle — the launch of the metro, the labor force working on production, cultural life, and recreation. By combining two parallel stories — state cinema chronicles and diary entries — the film attempts a revision of the historical archive and conventional understanding of the time. It brings to the forefront a collective image of the protagonist among the crowd.
