Children of Corn 2004 Directed by Mikhail Zheleznikov Дети кукурузы

The history of Khrushchev's "corn campaign" through the eyes of a viewer of Soviet newsreels of the 50s and 90s. The film tells about its main stages, as a result of which the country exported even bread for a long time. The narrative, based on newsreels, is interspersed with inserts from a propaganda cartoon of those years. When the pensioner, who devoted 25 years to breeding a new frost-resistant variety of corn, still achieved the result, the USSR no longer existed.
