"Buben, Baraban"

About movie

This is a story about limitless human patience that eventually runs out. For Katya, a 45-year old librarian, life has always been a struggle. All she has is a small room in a hostel, which she rents along with a friend, and her miserable librarian’s wage – which is always late. Katya’s dull life is brightened when she falls in love with a visiting sailor, and she inherits an apartment from her father. But when the sailor leaves her for her best friend, her life, which has just started to show some promise, again takes a turn for the worse. Katya’s mind turns to vengeance. The main character is played by Natalia Negoda (Little Vera), the first Russian star of the Perestroika era.
