The Name of the Earth and the Sun
1981, Russian. Directed by Mark Zakharov.
The teacher of the village school Horia, trying to instill in students a love for their land, tells them the legends associated with the ancient belfry. This displeases the headmaster, who did not understand the real motives of the teacher's behavior. The belfry burns down during the fire, leaves the village of Horia. But all that is good and useful that I did Horia is not lost. Remain his students.
