What happens

Going Inside a Storm (Russian: Иду на грозу, romanized: Idu na grozu) is a 1966 Soviet drama film directed by Sergei Mikaelyan. It was based on the 1962 novel Into the Storm by Daniil Granin, who also wrote a screenplay together with Mikaelyan. Protagonists, Sergei Krylov (Aleksandr Belyavskiy) and Oleg Tulin (Vasili Lanovoy), are promising young physicists in the field of thunderstorms. They dream of weather control. But later their ways in science parted, Oleg is ready to tradeoff his standpoints for personal success, but Sergei knows that the truth is more critical. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
