We apologize for delaying our Movie for Weekend, there was a technical reason that caused it.
Now we are back in business and glad to watch together with you an old Soviet movie “Republic Shkid” (Республика ШКИД), 1966:
Watching such movies is one more way to feel that era… The book (on what based the movie) is semi-autobiographical, semi-fictitious account of the Dostoevsky school written by two former students accurately reflects the school’s life and V. N. Soroka-Rosinsky’s part in it
For our readers who wants to know more:
We found a very interesting site devoted The Republic Shkid (in Russian): Республика ШКиД: книга, фильм, школа.
