I was in school at age eight when there was a film tour in school. For a provincial town with a population of ten thousand, it was cool. The name of the director, honestly, I don’t remember. It is Dmitry Mikhailovich. It does not matter. Among us, we called it “Ethodelo”. “This is the case” was his favorite tale. “This matter we put in here, and this matter we push out there.” He had a very special way of teaching. Everything he showed was as if he had done it for the first time. “Yes. Let’s see how this case runs. Volodymyr look at it. It seems right, right?” He was a chemist. Not a chemist in the sense of a scientist, but a "chemist" in the sense of a man whom the most humane court in the world has replaced the period of stay in the colony with corrective work on the construction of the national economy. That is “chemistry.” How did he get to school? It was as if one of the teachers' husbands served in a special command, where Itedelo was on a good account. He did not drink vodka, was convicted by some economic article, and was interested in amateur filming in leisure. What to do? Where else to take pictures if a third of the town is sitting, a third is preparing to sit, and a third is guarding one from the other? In our high schools, by the way, production training was proof of the zone. And he repeatedly stated that working with rabbits is much easier and quieter than with ten-classers.

At first, those who wanted to take the film camera into their hands and follow the difficult path of the Red Army, Nekrasov, were not deterred. There were 100 people in the circle. and ignorantly. At a time when the "Soviet Screen" came out in a two-million-dollar edition, and it was the turn to read it in the library, the "cinema" console had a magical property. The director proposed to establish an entry rate based on behavior and performance. But Tito strongly opposed it.
We will record all those who wish.
How will you handle it?! to
Don’t worry, I will do it. He answered briefly.
He wasn’t as simple as this guy seemed.

After the first session, the number of participants decreased by three. Boring lectures on physics, optics, and chemistry, schemes and formulas on the board, incomprehensible terms in the notebook, all of this glory to God was enough in the lessons. In the third class, there are 20 people. I went out just because I was interested in photography, and I was interested. Twelve people came to the fifth class. Thisodelo looked at us, counted, put it aside, and said:
Now it is normal. It can, it is a matter, and start.
And within a month, a person with a film camera became an indispensable attribute of all school activities. Our films from school life crazy popularity and gathered anchorages. Tito was a good leader. Once he was able to organize the process in such a way that everyone had a job to love, and no one was sitting without work. The fact that he was not a professional teacher and teacher added a note of trust to our relationship. In short, a normal man was.

It all ended suddenly and sadly. New year is approaching. On the last day before the holidays, the teachers, as usual, dismissed the students and closed the school from the inside, organized a party. And although Itodelo was not a member of the pedagogical team, he was invited. “In an embrace of harmonies.” Someone came to mind this crazy idea - to capture this event for a movie. That then long still dusted in the lab in a box with the inscription "New Year". After the holidays, nobody remembered her.

Some time later, closer to spring, we finally finished mounting a film on the theme of New Year’s school lights and lights. We determined the time of the premiere show, made an announcement. There was no room in the room, they sat on their heads. Under the impatient bull of the public extinguished the lights, and began the movie show. Who confused the film remains a mystery. Per someone caught the wrong box. New Year and New Year. When on the screen drunk teachers under silent music began to non-pedagogically crack and grimace, the audience rolled up. The public disappointed. The operator, who tried to interrupt an unauthorized movie show, was pulled out of the device. The collapse came on an episode where a drunken physruck with a drunken sound jumped around the tree in bags.

Of course a scandal broke out. Our loudest premiere was declared a dirty provocation. All the films were removed, the laboratory sealed. And the circle ceased its short existence. Only Fitzgerald came in for us. He said in the pediatric council devoted to this incident.

Okay to you! A normal movie. Thank you, there was no sound.
