Story[]

The film "Communist" takes place in 1919. Young Communist Vasily Gubanov came to the construction of the power plant-the most important object for the young Republic. A demobilized Communist front-line soldier Vasily Gubanov was in charge of the warehouse at the construction site of the power plant in Shatura and gave his work completely, from the outside it even seemed that such zeal in hard work was beyond human capabilities. And if the locomotive stopped because of lack of fuel, Vasily Gubanov one rushed to cut down the wood. And also, with full dedication, fiercely and selflessly, Vasily Gubanov knew how to love. But the Communist's life ended too soon.
