Two teenagers, Kasym and Liza, are trying to stop a group of criminals and helping police.

A large village high in the mountains of Kyrgyzstan has become almost deserted.

And why don’t people return to such wonderful places where life is cleaner and healthier than in cities?..

Longing to discover his father, a sad young boy dreams of becoming a fish and swimming to the great white ship he sees traversing Lake Issyk.

The end of the 1920s — the beginning of the 1930s in Kyrgyzstan. Parts of the Red Army are waging an uncompromising struggle with basmachi in Central Asia. The film tells about the formation of the character of the young Kyrgyz hunter Djura, who found himself in a swirling whirlpool of revolutionary events that swept the Pamirs. It shows the hard way from a simple young hunter, entangled in centuries of prejudice, to a conscious, seasoned in many battles with the Basmachi mature fighter, who believed in the great ideas of the revolution.

A film about boys dreaming of becoming astronauts.

A young woman, disillusioned with her beloved, leaves for a mountain village. Her connection with nature and with wise, sincere people brings her a sense of wholeness in life, something she thought was lost forever.
