What happens

Brave People (Russian: Смелые люди, romanized: Smelye lyudi), initially announced on release abroad by Mosfilm as The Horsemen, is a 1950 Soviet war drama film, directed by Konstantin Yudin. The film starred Sergei Gurzo and Alexey Gribov, and was Yudin's first drama film, as he had previously worked predominantly on comedies. The film was positively received and was the number one film in the Soviet Union during the year of its release. The film is set in the Great Patriotic War, but the plot, an adventure about a boy and his racehorse set in the Caucasus, is strikingly different from the grim realism of other war films of the era.
