What happens
Big School-Break (or Big Break translit. Bolshaya Peremena, Russian: Большая перемена) is a Soviet 1972 TV miniseries in 4 episodes. It was known in the US as The Long Recess, and it is loosely based on Georgy Sadovnikov's novel Walk towards people (Иду к людям). Sadovnikov was offered to write a script for a film about the life of evening school students using his novel, with the condition that the film's director would be the co-author.
