The film is dedicated to two cameramen and one director, Verigo-Dorovsky, Leopold and Friedrich, and Alexander Vladychuk during the period of silent cinema. Leopold is the grandfather of the author of the film, and Friedrich and Alexander are cousins. The life of the Verigo-Dorovskys began with the fact that their grandfather, Jan, was deprived of the nobility during the Polish uprising, although they were Germans. Later, their grandchildren, Leopold and Friedrich, came to Moscow. Here they studied at German educational institutions, and then became cameramen. They own the shooting of V. Lenin and a number of art paintings. Alexander Vladychuk was an artist, he shot several documentaries and one feature film, "White Gold", in Turkmenistan. With this he came to Leningrad.
