Kinoglaz overview
Synopsis:
The first part of Kinoglaz is set in a rural village peopled by Russian peasants. A group of children (referred to as "Young Pioneers") mobilize the adults into the new covenant of Russian society under communism. Since the Young Pioneers can read and keep up with the new Soviet literature, and dutifully poster the town with relevant information, they are able to sway the grown-ups away from the filthy, over-priced open-air market run by privateers toward the neat and reasonably-priced food co-operative run by the government.
