Scarecrow. Zheleznikov V.K.

The story “Scarecrow”-about “strange” people-an elderly front-line soldier, collecting pictures of his ancestor-artist, and his granddaughter, sixth grader Lena Bessoltseva. A girl, devoid of protective indifference, the ability not to notice cruelty or injustice. But in an excess endowed with love for a person, although he may not deserve it. The hatred of classmates, the indifference of teachers, and the carelessness of her grandfather fell to her share... And the worst thing is the betrayal of the one she considered a friend. What happened to Lena? She became strong, brave and... generous. Only a very strong personality can forgive and believe in a person. According to V. Zheleznikov’s story, director Rolan Bykov shot one of the most amazing films of the twentieth century “Scarecrow”.
