What happens
Sen-bong (Avangard: Koreyskiy Kolkhoz) (Russian: Сен-бонг (Авангард: корейский колхоз), lit. 'Vanguard (Vanguard: Korean Kolkhoz)') is a 1946 Soviet-Kazakh documentary film. Its subject is Avangard, a kolkhoz in the Kazakh SSR, founded in 1936 by Koryo-saram who had been relocated from a previous kolhoz. The documentary is the first Soviet film about Koryo-saram after their mass deportations from their original homes in the Soviet Far East in 1937. According to Kazakhstanskaya Pravda, Sen-bong is one of the documentary films to have "justly taken its place in the golden trove of Kazakh documentary filmmaking". (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
