A tragic comedy of the era of stagnation, a time of prosperity of "blat" and telephone law. The main character of the picture is put in charge of the warehouse and they want to make him their own person in order to use him for selfish interests: to give someone something for the gang, to arrange someone, to allocate someone a car, all on acquaintance, all to "their" people. After all, it is not for nothing that people say: we will count our own people.

Produced for newly independent Sakha television in the early nineties, Summer House is a pioneering document of a film culture in the making. The directorial debut of actor Anatoly Vasiliev, who also stars, the film tells the seemingly simple story of a man returning to his native village to purchase a house, only to find himself caught between the worlds of the living and the dead. Drawing on deep wells of Sakha spirituality and folk symbolism, and cast with local, non-professional actors, Summer House is a rarely-seen gem of independent filmmaking and a key piece of Sakha film history.
