Film synopsis: Borovitchi - Russian provincial town, about half way between Moscow and St. Petersburg, a little off the main track. 60,000 inhabitants, yet a rather rural way of life. Small dealers in the market place: "Help us, oh Lord, to sell!" There used to be some industry in the Soviet times, now what counts are the potatoes in your basement. Thank God, a good potato year! The head of the police has 45 sacks. The pride of the army: home-made pickles and preserves in the cellar of a former monastery. Felt boots are being made in one of the last factories. Winter may come.
