Story
Retired Trofim Bessarab ( Nikolai Yakovchenko ), a working man by nature, is constantly looking for where he can use his dull, despite his age, energy. All members of his large family long ago found their place in life. And a worthy place, no matter where and in what specialty they work. But most of all, grandfather is proud of his eldest grandson - a football player, the leftmost.
Perhaps for the first time in Soviet cinema, the director in the film addressed the theme of philistinism .
