This film focuses on the urban planning reform in the USSR; the early 1960s saw the emergence of Khrushchevki, allowing Soviet citizens—who had spent decades living in communal apartments—to finally obtain separate homes. Today, for many of us living in buildings that are already half a century old, the construction process of that era—characterized by rapid building methods—remains significant.
