The transitional period in Soviet cinematography coincides with the historical period called “perestroika”. Children become heroes of the “stagnation” period. However, they are different from the “archetype of the young hero” that is shown in the student films of Tarkovsky and Konchalovsky. The main themes of the movies are the problems of the youth. The filmmakers analyze such themes as education, conflict between a child and adult, and common mistakes of different generations. They treat these problems as a result of a static state of society. The youth become a powerful force that revives the concepts of “change” and “freedom”
