Georgiy Daneliya’s famous comedy is a kind, funny, and at the same time a sad story about a hopeless plumber Afanasy ‘Afonya’ Borshchov, who fills his life with dubious ”exploits,“ new acquaintances, and booze. Although Afonya has no respect for work, his coworkers and Katya, a girl in love with him, hope that Afanasy will change for the better. After all, he’s not doing anything wrong - he’s just being indifferent. Can anything spark his seemingly dormant heart?
A film about the transience of time, the need for choice, and love. The highest grossing Soviet film of 1975 (62.2 million viewers). A golden cast of the USSR.
