The 1950s. Residents of the small provincial town of Ensk are preparing to celebrate the New Year. Dorofeya Kupriyanova, chairman of the city executive committee, expects her beloved firstborn to join the family at the festive table. My son grew up selfish, unwilling to work and dreaming of a beautiful life. This was not how Dorothea, once an employee of the workshop and now the head of the city, wanted to see him. But you can't order a mother's heart. The director of the plant, Stepan Bortashevich, always dreamed of being correct and honest. But he has to lie, frame, and get out of it. And only with his children is he the same — an ardent Komsomol member, an incorrigible romantic and an optimist. This leap year will bring crucial changes in the lives of the heroes. Not always happy, but always necessary. Illusions disappear, unnecessary connections are broken, tightly tightened knots are cut, and finally life continues. In 1961, the film Leap Year was released on Soviet screens, in which Innokenty Smoktunovsky played one of his first roles.
