"The Dawns Here Are Quiet": Plot Description

- Fedot Vaskov is the foreman of a group of female anti-aircraft gunners.
- Liza Brichkina is a young 19-year-old daughter of a forester, who until the height of the war lived in one of the military cordons in the middle of the Bryansk forests.
- Sonya Gurvich is a young intelligent girl from a family of doctors who, after two semesters of university, went to the front.
- Zhenya Komelkova is a 19-year-old girl whose family was shot by German soldiers in front of her.
- Rita Osyanina - the girl married early, her border guard husband dies at the very beginning of the war, leaving an heir. Rita hands the baby over to her mother and goes to the front.
- Galya Chetvertak is a dreamy girl from an orphanage who went to war, deeply convinced of the romance of her act.
The story opens in 1942, where the reader is shown the life of the 171st railway siding, located in the epicenter of hostilities, with a couple of barely survived courtyards. The relatively calm, quiet rhythm of life in the area allowed the soldiers to abuse alcohol, as well as be tempted by the attention of the female half. The commander of the patrol Vaskov regularly wrote reports with a request to send non-drinking soldiers to the unit, but with enviable constancy, history repeated itself again until the male anti-aircraft gunners were replaced by women.
With the arrival of the girls, life on the road became very calm and fun at the same time, despite the hardships of time. Young people often made fun of Vaskov, who felt awkward in the company of new anti-aircraft gunners and was a little embarrassed by his lack of education, since he graduated from only 4 classes of school. Sometimes the foreman was indignant at the behavior of the girls, who, in his perception, worked "not according to the charter."
Rita is appointed commander of the anti-aircraft gunners. After the loss of her husband, her temper became harsh, and her nature became closed. She treated her comrades-in-arms quite severely, but Zhenya Komelkova managed to soften her character, who survived the loss of all her loved ones, but managed to remain an open and cheerful person. Secretly from everyone at night, Rita leaves to visit the mother and child, who live not far from the crossing.
A friendship is struck between Rita and Zhenya, to which Galya, who is reputed to be ugly, joins. Komelkova finds her tunic, tweaks her hair, and the ugly girl is noticeably transformed.
Once Rita went into the forest without permission. Upon her return, she notices two people in camouflage gear, armed and carrying some kind of packages. Osyanina reports at lightning speed about what she saw to Vaskov. The commander concludes that she met with the saboteurs of the German army, who were moving towards the railway junction, and decides to intercept the enemy.
Vaskov receives 5 anti-aircraft gunners in command and they are sent to carry out the interception plan. On the way, Vaskov tries to be optimistic, often jokes, wanting to cheer up his female fighters. The characters decide to take the German soldiers from Lake Vop, to which they go by the shortest route through forests and swamps. Walking through the swamp, Galya Chetvertak stumbles, finding herself in water up to her neck.
The company successfully reaches its destination. The commander, knowing about the numerical superiority of his group, counts on a quick reprisal against the enemies, but decides to play it safe and chooses a path for a possible retreat. Waiting for the Germans to appear, the girls manage to have lunch, after which Vaskov gives a military order to detain the saboteurs and the heroes take up combat positions.
Galya catches a cold after falling into a swamp, she is seized with chills. The team spends the whole night waiting for the saboteurs. Closer to morning, the Germans appear, but contrary to expectations, instead of two people, they number sixteen. Vaskov decides to send Lisa on the road to tell about what happened and bring help. Brichkina strays from the landmarks and loses a noticeable pine tree, which means the right turn for the passage of the swamp. Moving through the swamp, it stumbles and, getting stuck in a quagmire, dies.
Meanwhile, the commander and the anti-aircraft gunners, wanting to scare off the German soldiers and force them to take a detour, play out a scene. Vaskov and the girls create the impression that lumberjacks are working in the forest. They begin to call loudly, burn fires. Fedot chops down trees, and resourceful Zhenya goes for a swim, pretending not to notice the presence of enemies. The unsuspecting Germans leave.
The commander understands that the hidden enemy can be cunning and does not exclude the threat of an attack on his squad. Together with Osyanina, he goes on reconnaissance. Having found out that the saboteurs have taken a rest, Vaskov decides to change the location of the team and sends Rita for the girls. Fedot recalls that he forgot his pouch and is upset. Noticing his mood, Sonya decides to return for the loss.
The commander did not have time to stop Gurevich, who ran away for a pouch. Shots rang out. Sonya is killed by bullets from two German soldiers. The upset group buries the girl. Vaskov takes off her boots and hands them over to Galya, who lost hers in the swamp, noting that she must take care of the living.
Saying goodbye to Sonya, the commander and the anti-aircraft gunners begin a fierce pursuit of the Germans, wishing to avenge the death of their comrade-in-arms. They overtake the enemy and, stealthily sneaking up, Vaskov kills one of them, but he has no strength for the second. At this moment, Zhenya is nearby and, having killed the saboteur with a rifle butt, saves the commander's life. The Germans are retreating. Realizing the perfect deed, Komelkova is tormented by oppressive thoughts for what she had done. The foreman tries to justify her decisive step by talking about the inhumanity and ruthlessness of the enemy.
Shocked by Sonya's death, dreamy Galya, during the oncoming battle, throws her rifle aside and falls to the ground. The girls begin to accuse her of cowardice, but Vaskov justifies Chetvertak by inexperience and confusion. For educational purposes, the foreman takes Galya with him on reconnaissance.
Examining the surroundings of the forest, the scouts notice the corpses of the Germans. It was estimated that there were still 12 German soldiers left. Sergeant Major and Galya are hiding in ambush, ready to shoot at the approaching saboteurs. Suddenly, Chetvertak leaves the shelter and, distraught with horror, betrays himself, receiving a machine-gun burst from the Germans.
Vaskov decides to lead the enemy away from the place where Zhenya and Rita remained. Until nightfall, he tried to create noise in the forest, fired at the enemy figures that flashed between the trees, shouted and tried to lure the saboteurs closer to the swamp. Wounded in the arm, he takes refuge in the swamp until morning.
At dawn, the wounded commander gets out on land and notices on the water a black skirt worn by Liza Brichkina. Vaskov realizes that the girl has died, and the last hopes for help are turning to dust. Dejected by the heavy thoughts of losing "his own war", Vaskov goes in search of German soldiers.
In the forest, he meets an abandoned hut, which turned out to be a hideout for saboteurs. Hidden, the foreman watched the Germans, who were hiding the explosives. Then the whole group leaves for reconnaissance, leaving one soldier to guard the hut. Fedot kills the enemy, takes the weapon and goes to the bank of the river, where they once played a scene in front of the saboteurs. There he tells the remaining anti-aircraft gunners about the death of Gali and Liza, informing that they will soon have to accept their last, probably, battle.
Saboteurs appear on the shore, a terrible battle ensues. Vaskov fought relentlessly, defending his homeland and not allowing the enemy detachment to cross the river. Rita receives a severe shrapnel wound in the stomach. The wounded Zhenya continues to shoot back, leading the Germans away and not noticing the wounds received. The girl shot to the last bullet, sparing no effort and striking the enemy with her courage. The Germans shoot at close range the unarmed Komelkova.
The dying Osyanina tells the foreman about her son Albert and asks to take care of the baby. Vaskov, tormented by thoughts of losing the whole team, shares with Rita his feelings about what happened and asks the question: was the death of young girls worth it to give her up for trying to block the road to the Germans? Rita replies that they defended the Motherland and did everything right. How could they have acted differently and let the enemy undermine the road? No.
Vaskov rises and follows the Germans again. He hears a shot and returns to Rita, who shot herself, not wanting to torture herself or the foreman. Having buried both girls, from the last forces Fedot moved forward, where the hut of the Germans was located. He bursts in, where he kills one of the saboteurs and takes four more prisoners. In a semi-delirious state, wounded and exhausted, he leads the Germans to the crossing line. Realizing that he has reached the place, the foreman loses consciousness.
In the epilogue of the book, the author talks about a tourist's letter written many years after the military events. It tells about a gray-haired old man who came to the lake, who did not have an arm, and a rocket captain named Albert Fedotych. On the shore, they set up a marble slab. The tourist says that together with the arrivals, he goes in search of the graves of the anti-aircraft gunners who once died here. And notes what "the dawns here are quiet."

"And the dawns here are quiet ..." - plot
May 1942 Countryside in Russia. There is a war with Nazi Germany. The 171st railway siding is commanded by foreman Fedot Evgrafych Vaskov. He is thirty-two years old. He has only four classes of education. Vaskov was married, but his wife ran away with the regimental veterinarian, and his son soon died.
It's calm at the junction. The soldiers arrive here, look around, and then start "drinking and walking." Vaskov persistently writes reports, and, in the end, he is sent a platoon of "non-drinking" fighters - girls-anti-aircraft gunners. At first, the girls laugh at Vaskov, but he does not know how to deal with them. Rita Osyanina is in command of the first squad of the platoon. Rita's husband died on the second day of the war. She sent her son Albert to his parents. Soon Rita got into the regimental anti-aircraft school. With the death of her husband, she learned to hate the Germans "quietly and mercilessly" and was harsh with the girls from her department.
The Germans kill the tray, instead of her they send Zhenya Komelkova, a slender red-haired beauty. In front of Zhenya's eyes, a year ago, the Germans shot her relatives. After their death, Zhenya crossed the front. She picked her up, defended "and not that he took advantage of the helplessness - Colonel Luzhin stuck to himself." He was a family man, and the military commanders, having found out about this, “took the colonel into circulation”, and sent Zhenya “into a good team”. Despite everything, Zhenya is "sociable and mischievous." Her fate immediately "crosses out Ritin's exclusivity." Zhenya and Rita converge, and the latter "thaws".
When it comes to transferring from the front line to the patrol, Rita gets excited and asks to send her squad. The exit is located not far from the city where her mother and son live. At night, Rita secretly runs into the city, carries her groceries. One day, returning at dawn, Rita sees two Germans in the forest. She wakes up Vaskov. He receives an order from his superiors to "catch" the Germans. Vaskov calculates that the route of the Germans lies on the Kirov railway. The sergeant major decides to take a shortcut through the swamps to the Sinyukhina ridge, stretching between two lakes, along which only one can get to the railway, and wait for the Germans there - they will probably go by the roundabout route. Vaskov takes Rita, Zhenya, Liza Brichkina, Sonya Gurvich and Galya Chetvertak with him.
Liza is from the Bryansk region, she is the daughter of a forester. She had been caring for a terminally ill mother for five years and was unable to finish school because of this. A visiting hunter, who awakened her first love in Liza, promised to help her enter a technical school. But the war began, Liza got into the anti-aircraft unit. Liza likes the Vaskov foreman.
Sonya Gurvich is from Minsk. Her father was a district doctor, they had a large and friendly family. She herself studied for a year at Moscow University, she knows German. Neighbor on lectures, Sonya's first love, with whom they spent only one unforgettable evening in the park of culture, volunteered for the front.
Galya Chetvertak grew up in an orphanage. There her first love "overtook" her. After the orphanage, Galya got into the library technical school. The war found her in her third year.
The path to Lake Vop lies through the swamps. Vaskov leads the girls along a path well known to him, on both sides of which there is a quagmire. The soldiers safely reach the lake and, hiding on the Sinyukhina ridge, await the Germans. Those do not appear on the shore of the lake until the next morning. There are not two of them, but sixteen. While the Germans have about three hours to go to Vaskov and the girls, the foreman sends Lisa Brichkina back to the crossing to report on the change in the situation. But Liza, crossing the swamp, stumbles and drowns. Nobody knows about this, and everyone is waiting for help. Until then, the girls decide to mislead the Germans. They portray lumberjacks, shout loudly, Vaskov knocks down trees.
The Germans are retreating to Lake Legontovo, not daring to walk along the Sinyukhina ridge, on which, as they think, someone is cutting down a forest. Vaskov with the girls moves to a new place. In the same place he left his pouch, and Sonya Gurvich volunteers to bring it. In a hurry, she stumbles upon two Germans who kill her. Vaskov and Zhenya kill these Germans. Sonya is buried.
Soon, the soldiers see the rest of the Germans approaching them. Hiding behind bushes and boulders, they shoot first, the Germans retreat, fearing an invisible enemy. Zhenya and Rita accuse Galya of cowardice, but Vaskov defends her and takes her with him into reconnaissance for "educational purposes." But Vaskov does not suspect what mark Sonina's death left in Gali's soul. She is terrified and at the most crucial moment betrays herself, and the Germans kill her.
Fedot Evgrafych takes the Germans upon himself in order to take them away from Zhenya and Rita. He is wounded in the arm. But he manages to leave and reach the island in the swamp. In the water, he notices Lisa's skirt and realizes that help will not come. Vaskov finds the place where the Germans are staying for rest, kills one of them and goes to look for the girls. They are preparing to take the final battle. The Germans appear. In an unequal battle, Vaskov and the girls kill several Germans. Rita is mortally wounded, and while Vaskov drags her to safety, the Germans kill Zhenya. Rita asks Vaskov to take care of her son and shoots herself in the temple. Vaskov buries Zhenya and Rita. After that, he goes to the forest hut, where the surviving five Germans are sleeping. Vaskov kills one of them on the spot, and takes four prisoners. They themselves tie each other with belts, because they do not believe that Vaskov is "one-and-one for many miles." He loses consciousness from pain only when his own Russians are already coming towards him.
Many years later, a gray-haired stocky old man without an arm and a rocket captain, whose name is Albert Fedotych, will bring a marble slab to Rita's grave.
History
According to the author, the story is based on a real episode of the war, when seven soldiers, after being wounded, served at one of the junction stations of the Kirov railway, did not allow a German sabotage group to blow up the railway in this area. After the battle, only the sergeant survived, the commander of a group of Soviet soldiers, who after the war was awarded the medal "For Military Merit". “And I thought: this is it! A situation when a person himself, without any order, decides: I will not let you in! They have nothing to do here! I started working with this plot, I have already written seven pages. And suddenly I realized that nothing would come of it. It will just be a special case in the war. There was nothing fundamentally new in this plot. The work has stopped. And then suddenly it came up - let my hero have not men in subjection, but young girls. And that's all - the story immediately lined up. After all, women find it most difficult in war. There were 300 thousand of them at the front! And then no one wrote about them "
And the dawns here are quiet. A story that brought real fame to its author, Boris Lvovich Vasiliev. Written in 1969, it was almost immediately published in the Yunost magazine. A year later, the work was transferred to the theater stage. In 1970, the story "The Dawns Here Are Quiet ..." was filmed. In this story, the author unfolds before the reader a story about a military operation that began in one of the Russian forests. Going to work, the soldiers, led by the foreman, discover that the Germans outnumber them.
The detachment is left without reinforcements, they are doomed to death: someone succumbs to fear, someone bravely defends their native land. But the fact is that all the fighters, except for the foreman, are women. Losing each of his "soldiers", one after another, the protagonist of the story, the foreman, bitterly thinks about the unnaturalness of what is happening. Women who die at the hands of the enemy should be in a completely different place, in the family, to give birth and raise children. This idea, which is repeated in the work as a reprise, is the main idea of the author.
Boris Vasiliev raises the topic of cowardice, heroism, duty, but also poses the problem of “woman and war”. And this problem pushes the reader to an even greater problem, because the woman in this work is synonymous with life, the continuer of the family.
"And the dawns here are quiet ..." summary
Replenishment
It was hot May 1942. At the 171st railway siding, Sergeant-Major Fedot Vaskov was in charge. Vaskov at the age of 32, he is lonely, as his wife ran away with her lover, and his little son died. The soldiers were constantly changing, because the place was calm, the soldiers drank moonshine and walked with local women. Fedot Evgrafych demands to send to him non-drinkers and "not walking" - in response, the authorities send a detachment of young anti-aircraft gunners.
Sergeant Major Vaskov does not know how to behave with young women, they respond with giggling to any remark, dry the linen "on all fronts", or even lie down to sunbathe in what their mother gave birth to. Home in the first squad of the platoon Margarita Osyanina. She was the first to marry from the class, and remained a widow on the second day of the war. Rita has a little son Albert, whom she sent to his parents in the village two months before the war.
The death of her husband made her something special among the other girls, she remained the most severe among them. When Zhenya Komelkova appears among the girls, Rita's peculiarity disappears. A year before Zhenya ended up here, the Germans shot her entire family. She saw it with her own eyes, from the house opposite, where her Estonian neighbor hid her. Despite the great loss, Zhenya laughs and smiles, she is very beautiful, slim, with long hair. Zhenya and Rita become friends.
The squad is advancing
After a while, it becomes clear that it was not in vain that Rita asked to transfer her platoon here. Every three days, Osyanina runs away without permission after dinner and returns at dawn. On one of these trips, in the morning, Rita sees two Germans going into the forest. She wakes up Vaskov, he informs his superiors and decides to move forward in order to track down the enemy: kill one of the Germans, take one prisoner for questioning. He takes with him: Zhenya, Rita, Liza Brichkina, Sonya Gurvich and Galya Chetvertak.
The detachment is moving forward, walking along a short path. Vaskov correctly guesses that the Germans will follow a long path, and he himself leads the girls by a short road, through the swamp, to Lake Vop. Located in ambush, the foreman and the girls are finally waiting for the Germans. But when the Germans come ashore, Fedot Vaskov must solve a big problem in his head: not two, but sixteen Germans came ashore.
We are waiting for reinforcements
Liza Brichkina is sent back to the village to inform her superiors that reinforcements are urgently needed. Liza, the daughter of a forester, runs away, thinking about her past life, which she spent in caring for her sick mother, and about her feelings for Sergeant Major Vaskov. She misses the right place, stumbles and dies in the swamp. At this time, the foreman and the rest of the girls do not yet know about it. They have to play for time: pretending to be lumberjacks, they burn fires, cut down trees.
When the fighters moved on, Vaskov discovers that he forgot his tobacco pouch. The cheerful Sonya decides to return for him, especially since they have already passed this path twice already. Unfortunately, Sonya meets the Germans who kill her. Sergeant Major and Zhenya track down two Germans and take revenge on Sonya. Soon, they fire at the enemy squad, but only injure one.
During the shelling, Galya Quarter, a former library student who went to the front because of romantic performances, succumbs to fear. She is terrified of Sonya's death, but Vaskov does not see it. He takes her with him, ambushes her, and when the right moment comes to shoot the enemy, Galya betrays herself, the Germans kill her. The foreman leads the Germans with him to save the surviving Zhenya and Rita. Vaskov is wounded in the arm. He finds a hut, a parking lot of the enemy, kills another German. On his way, near the swamp, he notices Brichkina's skirt and realizes that the girl is stuck in the swamp, there will be no help.
The last battle
Survivors Zhenya and Rita meet Fedot on the shore as sisters and brothers. They hug, cry, the foreman tells the girls about Liza's death and that the last battle awaits them, the enemy must not be allowed to the railroad. The girls are ready for this. In an unequal battle, the Germans first wound Rita, and while Vaskov hides her, Zhenya dies. Rita realizes that she will not survive and confesses to Vaskov where she ran at night: not far from the crossing, her mother lives in the city, with Rita's little son. The woman asks Fedot to take care of the baby. Not wanting to die in agony, Rita shoots herself in the temple.
Vaskov, left alone, first buries Rita and Zhenya. And then he goes to the hut, the camp of the Germans. He kills one German, and the other four surrender. The enemy simply could not imagine that the foreman was alone. And the foreman himself, tying up the last German, bitterly promised to kill everyone, for the five girls they killed. The story ends with a life-affirming epilogue. Many years pass. Old Fedot Evgrafych and Albert Fedotych bring a marble slab to Rita's grave.
The beginning of the 70s was literally illuminated by the light of the "Dawn". The people read out Boris Vasiliev's story The Dawns Here Are Quiet, published in 1969 in the Yunost magazine. Two years later, readers were already bursting with the famous play "Taganka". And 45 years ago, a two-part film by Stanislav Rostotsky was released, which in the first year was watched by 66 million - every fourth inhabitant of the USSR, if you count infants. Despite the subsequent film adaptations, the viewer gives the unconditional palm to this mostly black and white picture and generally considers it one of the best films about the war.
From the heroes of the old days
In those years, the war was often filmed, and filmed great. A film about five dead girls and their rude, but such a sincere foreman managed to stand out from this constellation. Probably because former front-line soldiers gave him their memories, soul, experience, starting with the scriptwriter, writer Boris Vasiliev.
He knew how to write about the war especially. His characters were never perfect. Vasiliev seemed to be saying to the young reader: look, people like you went to the front - those who escaped from lessons, fought, fell in love at random. But something in them turned out to be like that, which means there is also in you.
Film director Stanislav Rostotsky also passed the front. The story of Vasiliev interested Stanislav Iosifovich precisely because he wanted to make a movie about a woman in war. He himself was carried out of the battle by nurse Anya Chegunova, who later became Beketova. Rostotsky sought out the savior, who, as it turned out, reached Berlin, then got married and gave birth to beautiful children. But by the time the shooting was over, Anna was already blind and fading from brain cancer. The director took her to the studio viewing room and recounted the whole picture in detail what was happening on the screen.
The chief cinematographer Vyacheslav Shumsky, the chief artist Sergei Serebrennikov, the make-up artist Alexei Smirnov, the assistant to the costume designer Valentin Galkina, the director of the painting Grigory Rimalis fought. They simply physically could not admit untruths on the screen.
Sergeant Major Vaskov - Andrey Martynov
Finding actors who would be believed was a difficult task. Rostotsky conceived: let the foreman be played by someone famous, and the girls, on the contrary, should be debutantes. For the role of foreman Vaskov, he chose Vyacheslav Tikhonov, and Boris Vasiliev believed that the front-line soldier Georgy Yumatov would do the best. But it so happened that the search for "Vaskov" continued. The assistant saw the 26-year-old actor at the graduation performance.
Andrei Leonidovich was born in Ivanovo, from childhood he raved about the theater. And his hero not only was six years older, but also from the village, had a "corridor education", he dropped his words - as he gave a ruble.
The first tests were very unsuccessful, but, apparently, Rostotsky was very attracted by the type of the actor and his perseverance. In the end, Martynov played Vaskov, so much so that the viewer unconditionally fell in love with this ridiculous foreman following his screen fighters. Martynov also superbly performed the final scenes of the film, where he, already gray-haired, one-armed, together with his adopted son, erects a modest tombstone in honor of his girls.

The actor had another starring role - in the television series "Eternal Call". Martynov successfully worked in cinema and theater. He has voiced over 120 foreign films, including The Godfather and Schindler's List.
Life presented him with a kind of surprise: his wife was a German citizen whom he met at the festival. Franziska Thun spoke excellent Russian. The couple had a son, Sasha. But Andrei did not want to live in Germany, although at home his colleagues literally pecked him for marrying a foreigner. And Franziska did not want to move to the USSR. Their union eventually fell apart.
Rita Osyanina - Irina Shevchuk
Rita is the only heroine who was married and became a widow in the very first days of the war. In the rear, she and her mother left a small child, who is then adopted by Vaskov.
The agonizing personal drama of her heroine Shevchuk helped to play her difficult romance with the then gaining popularity actor Talgat Nigmatulin ("Pirates of the XX century"). But the happiness of motherhood Irina had to experience many years later. In 1981, she gave birth to a daughter, the famous actress Alexandra Afanasyeva-Shevchuk (the girl's father is composer Alexander Afanasyev).
Irina Borisovna successfully combines acting and social careers. In 2016, she starred in the movie Stolen Happiness. At the same time Shevchuk is vice-president of one of the largest film festivals in Russia "Kinoshock".
Zhenya Komelkova - Olga Ostroumova
By the time of filming "Dawn" Olga at the same Rostotsky played a memorable role in "We'll Live Until Monday." Zhenya Komelkova - bright, daring and heroic - was her dream.
In the film, Ostroumova, whose grandfather was a priest, had to play a completely unusual "nudity" for the USSR. According to the scenario, the anti-aircraft gunner girls washed in the bathhouse. It was important for the director to show beautiful female bodies intended for love and motherhood, and not for being hit by bullets.
Olga Mikhailovna is still considered one of the most beautiful Russian actresses. Despite her extremely feminine appearance, Ostroumova has a strong character. She was not afraid to divorce her second husband, chief director of the Hermitage Theater Mikhail Levitin, although they had two children in marriage. Now she is an actress three times a grandmother.
In 1996, Olga Mikhailovna married actor Valentin Gaft. Two such brilliant creative people managed to get along, although Gaft is the star of Sovremennik, and Ostroumova works at the Theater. Mossovet. Olga Mikhailovna said that at any time she was ready to listen to the poems of Valentin Iosifovich, which he wrote as talentedly as he played in films and on stage.
Liza Brichkina - Elena Drapeko
Lena, of course, really wanted to play Zhenya Komelkova. But in her, a slender girl who was born in Kazakhstan and studied in Leningrad, the director "saw" the full-blooded beauty Liza, who grew up in a remote forest hut and secretly in love with the foreman. In addition, Stanislav Iosifovich decided that Brichkina should not be a Bryansk, but a Vologda girl. Elena Drapeko learned to "okat" so much that for a long time she could not get rid of the characteristic dialect.
Some of the most difficult scenes for the young actress were the scenes when her heroine was drowning in a swamp. Everything was filmed in natural conditions, a wetsuit was put on Lena-Lisa. She had to dive into dirty goo. She had to die, and everyone around was laughing at how the "swamp kikimora" looked. Moreover, her freckles were being restored all the time ...
The unyielding character of Elena Grigorievna manifested itself in the fact that she became not only a very famous actress, who is still filming, but also a public figure. Drapeko is a State Duma deputy, candidate of sociological sciences.
Political activity has not always been conducive to personal life. But Elena Grigorievna has a daughter Anastasia Belova, a successful producer, and a granddaughter Varenka.
Sonya Gurvich - Irina Dolganova
Irina Valerievna in life was as modest as her heroine, the quietest and "bookish" among the five fighters. Irina arrived for samples from Saratov. She did not believe in herself so much that she did not even leave an address. They barely found her and was immediately sent to play scenes at the rink with the then beginner Igor Kostolevsky, otherwise she would have to wait until next winter.
Rostotsky forced Irina, as it should be according to the script, to wear boots two sizes larger, which caused the girl real torment. And from the scene, when her Sonya dies from a blow with a German knife and her friends find her, Irina Shevchuk and Olga Ostroumova were in genuine horror: Dolganova's face looked so lifeless.
Despite the "modest" role, Irina received an offer to stay in Moscow, at the film studio. Gorky. But she decided that the theater is more important for the actress. For many years she has been playing in the Nizhny Novgorod Youth Theater. Irina Valerievna has a husband - a businessman and a son - a doctor. In her city, Dolganova is well known not only as an actress, but also as a defender of homeless animals.
Galya Chetvertak - Ekaterina Markova
For Markova, the realities of childhood and adolescence were sharply different from those that fell to the orphanage Galka Chetvertak, who even invented her surname for her small stature. Ekaterina grew up in the family of the famous Soviet writer Georgy Markov. As a girl, she was very purposeful: she specially went to study at an evening school for working youth, as she wanted to graduate from a studio at the Moscow Theater. Stanislavsky.
But what, of course, brought Katya and Galka closer together is a rich imagination. Jackdaw invented everything for herself: parents, a groom and a happy future, which was not allowed to come true by a German bullet. And Markova became a writer, while not leaving work in one of the best theaters in the country - "Sovremennik".
Several stories by Ekaterina Georgievna have been successfully filmed.
Markova lived for many years in a happy union with the magnificent actor Georgy Taratorkin, who recently passed away. The couple have two children. His son Philip is a historian by training, now he has taken the ordination of a priest. And the viewer knows her daughter Anna Taratorkina well from films, TV series and roles in the RAMT.
The story "The Dawns Here Are Quiet", a summary of which is given later in the article, tells about the events that took place during the Great Patriotic War.
The work is dedicated to the heroic feat of anti-aircraft gunners who unexpectedly found themselves surrounded by the Germans.
About the story "The Dawns Here Are Quiet"
The story was first published in 1969, it was approved by the editor of the magazine "Youth".
The reason for writing the work was a real episode of wartime.
A small group of 7 soldiers recovering from wounds prevented the Germans from blowing up the Kirov railway.
As a result of the operation, only one commander survived, who later, after the end of the war, received the medal "For Military Merit".
The episode is tragic, however, in the realities of wartime, this event is lost among the horrors of a terrible war. Then the author remembered about 300 thousand women who bore the front-line hardships along with male soldiers.
And the plot of the story is based on the tragic fate of the girls-anti-aircraft gunners who die during the reconnaissance operation.
Who is the author of the book "The Dawns Here Are Quiet"
The work was written by Boris Vasiliev in a narrative genre.
When the Great Patriotic War began, he barely finished 9th grade.
Boris Lvovich fought near Smolensk, received a concussion, and therefore knew about frontline life firsthand.
He became interested in literary work in the 50s, wrote plays and scripts. The writer took up prose stories only 10 years later.
The main characters of the story "The Dawns Here Are Quiet"
Vaskov Fedot Evgrafych
The sergeant major, in whose command the anti-aircraft gunners entered, occupied a commandant position at the 171st railway junction.
He is 32 years old, but the girls gave him the nickname "old man" for his intractable character.
Before the war, he was an ordinary peasant from the village, had 4 classes of education, at the age of 14 he was forced to become the only breadwinner in the family.
The son of Vaskov, whom he sued from his ex-wife after the divorce, died before the start of the war.
Gurvich Sonya
A simple shy girl from a large family, she was born and raised in Minsk. Her father worked as a district doctor.
Before the war, she managed to study for a year at Moscow State University as an interpreter, she spoke German fluently. Sonya's first love was a bespectacled student, who was studying in the library at the next table, with whom they timidly talked.
When the war began, due to the surplus of translators at the front, Sonya ended up in a school for anti-aircraft gunners, and then in the detachment of Fedot Vaskov.
The girl was very fond of poetry, her cherished dream was to see her many household members again. During the reconnaissance operation, Sonya was killed by a German with two stabs in the chest.
Brichkina Elizaveta
Country girl, the daughter of a forester. At the age of 14, she was forced to leave school and take care of her terminally ill mother.
She dreamed of entering a technical school, so after the death of her mother, following the advice of one of her father's friends, she was going to move to the capital. But her plans were not destined to come true, they were corrected by the war - Liza went to the front.
The gloomy sergeant Vaskov immediately aroused great sympathy in the girl. During a scouting expedition, Lisa was sent through the swamp for help, but she was in too much of a hurry and drowned. After some time, Vaskov will find her skirt in the swamp, then he will understand that he was left without help.
Komelkova Evgeniya
Cheerful and beautiful red-haired girl. The Germans shot all members of her family, the merciless massacre took place right in front of Zhenya's eyes.
The girl was saved from death by her neighbor. Eager to avenge the death of her family, Zhenya turned to the anti-aircraft gunner.
The girl's attractive appearance and perky character made her an object of courting Colonel Luzhin, so the authorities, in order to interrupt the romance, redirected Zhenya to a female detachment, so she came under the command of Vaskov.
In intelligence, Zhenya twice showed fearlessness and heroism. She saved her commander when he was fighting the German. And then, exposing herself to the bullets, she took the Germans away from the place where the foreman and her wounded friend Rita were hiding.
Chetvertak Galina
A very young and receptive girl, she was distinguished by her short stature and a habit of composing stories and fables.
She grew up in an orphanage and did not even have her own surname. Because of her small stature, the elderly caretaker, who treated Galya in a friendly way, invented her surname Chetvertak.
Before being drafted, the girl almost managed to finish 3 courses of the library technical school. During the reconnaissance operation, Galya could not cope with fear and jumped out of cover, falling under German bullets.
Osyanina Margarita
The senior person in the platoon, Rita was distinguished by her seriousness, was very restrained and rarely smiled. As a girl, she bore the surname Mushtakova.
At the very beginning of the war, her husband, Lieutenant Osyanin, died. Wanting to avenge the death of a loved one, Rita went to the front.
She gave her only son Albert to be raised by her mother. Rita's death was the last of the five girls in intelligence. She shot herself, realizing that she was mortally wounded and was an unbearable burden for her commander Vaskov.
Before she died, she asked the foreman to take care of Albert. And he kept his promise.
Other characters "The Dawns Here Are Quiet"
Kiryanova
She was Rita's senior comrade-in-arms, the industrial platoon commissar. Before serving at the border, she participated in the Finnish War. Kiryanova, along with Rita, Zhenya Komelkova and Galya Chetvertak, were redirected to the 171st patrol.
Knowing about Rita's secret forays to her son and mother during the service with Vaskov, she did not betray her old colleague, interceding for her that morning when the girl met the Germans in the forest.
A brief retelling of the story "The Dawns Here Are Quiet"
Narrative events are heavily abbreviated. Dialogue and descriptive points are omitted.
Chapter 1
The action took place in the rear. At the inoperative railway sidings at number 171, only a few surviving houses remain. There were no more bombings, but for a precaution, the command left anti-aircraft installations here.
Compared to other parts of the front, there was a resort at the junction, the soldiers abused alcohol and flirted with local residents.
The weekly reports of the commandant of the patrol, foreman Vaskov Fedot Evgrafych, to the anti-aircraft gunners led to a regular change in the composition, but the picture repeated itself over and over again. Finally, after analyzing the situation, the command sent a team of female anti-aircraft gunners under the leadership of the foreman.
The new squad had no problems with drinking and bingeing, but it was unusual for Fedot Evgrafych to command a female cocky and trained squad, since he himself had only 4 classes of education.
Chapter 2
The death of her husband made Margarita Osyanina a stern and self-contained person. From the moment of the loss of her beloved, a desire for revenge burned in her heart, so she remained to serve on the border near the places where Osyanin died.
To replace the deceased tray, they sent Yevgeny Komelkov - a mischievous red-haired beauty. She also suffered from the Nazis - she had to witness the execution of all family members by the Germans with her own eyes. Two dissimilar girls became friends and Rita's heart began to thaw from the grief she had experienced, thanks to Zhenya's cheerful and open disposition.
Two girls took the shy Galya Chetvertak into their circle. When Rita finds out that it is possible to transfer to the 171st patrol, she immediately agrees, since her son and mother live very close.
All three anti-aircraft gunners come under the command of Vaskov and Rita, with the help of her friends, makes regular night sorties to her relatives.
CHAPTER 3
Returning in the morning after one of her secret sorties, Rita ran into two German soldiers in the forest. They were armed and carrying something heavy in sacks.
Rita immediately reported this to Vaskov, who guessed that they were saboteurs, whose purpose was to undermine a strategically important railway junction.
The foreman gave important information to the command over the phone and was ordered to comb the forest. He decided to go to Lake Vop by a short path, crossing the Germans.
On reconnaissance Fedot Evgrafych took with him five girls, led by Rita. They were Elizaveta Brichkina, Evgeniya Komelkova, Galina Chetvertak and Sonya Gurvich as translators.
Before sending the soldiers, they had to teach them how to put on proper shoes, so as not to erase their feet, and also force them to clean their rifles. The conditional signal of danger was the quack of a drake.
Chapter 4
The shortest way to the forest lake was through a swampy swamp. For almost half a day, the team had to walk up to the waist in the cold swamp slurry. Galya Chetvertak lost her boot and footcloth, and part of the way through the swamp she had to walk with bare feet.
After reaching the shore, the whole team was able to rest, wash dirty clothes and have a snack. To continue the campaign, Vaskov made chunya from birch bark for Gali. We reached the desired point only in the evening, here it was necessary to arrange an ambush.
CHAPTER 5
When planning a meeting with two fascist soldiers, Vaskov was not very worried and hoped that he would be able to capture them from the forward position, which he placed among the stones. However, in an unforeseen event, the foreman foresaw the possibility of retreat.
The night passed calmly, only the fighter Quartertak fell seriously ill, walking barefoot through the swamp. In the morning, the Germans reached for the Sinyukhina ridge between the lakes, the enemy detachment consisted of sixteen people.
Chapter 6
Realizing that he had miscalculated, and that he could not stop a large German detachment, Vaskov sent Elizaveta Brichkina for help. He chose Lisa because she grew up in nature and was very good at navigating the forest.
To detain the Nazis, the team decided to portray the noisy activity of lumberjacks. They lit fires, Vaskov chopped down trees, the girls echoed and cheerfully called each other. When the German detachment was 10 meters away from them, Zhenya ran straight to the river in order, while swimming, to divert the attention of the enemy scouts.
Their plan worked, the Germans went around, and the team managed to gain a whole day of time.
Chapter 7
Liza was in a great hurry for help. Not having followed the orders of the foreman about the pass on the island in the middle of the swamp, she, tired and frozen, continued on her way.
Almost reaching the end of the swamp, Liza fell into thought and was greatly frightened by the large bubble that swelled right in front of her in the dead silence of the swamp.
Instinctively, the girl rushed to the side and lost support under her feet. The pole that Lisa was trying to lean on broke. The last thing she saw before her death was the rays of the rising sun.
Chapter 8
The foreman did not know exactly about the trajectory of the Germans, so he decided to go on reconnaissance with Rita. They found a halt, 12 fascists were resting near the fire and drying their clothes. It was not possible to establish where the other four were.
Vaskov decides to change the place of deployment, and therefore directs Rita for the girls and at the same time asks to bring his personalized pouch. But in the confusion, the pouch was forgotten in its old place, and Sonya Gurvich, without waiting for the commander's permission, ran for an expensive item.
After a short time, the foreman heard a barely audible cry. As a seasoned fighter, he guessed what the cry meant. Together with Zhenya, they went in the direction of the sound and found the body of Sonya, killed with two stabs in the chest.
Chapter 9
Leaving Sonya, the foreman and Zhenya recovered in pursuit of the Nazis so that they would not have time to report the incident to their own. Rage helps the foreman to clearly think over the plan of action.
Vaskov killed one of the Germans quickly, Zhenya helped him to cope with the second, stunning Fritz on the head with a rifle butt. This was the first hand-to-hand combat for the girl, which she endured very hard.
In the pocket of one of the Fritzes, Vaskov found his pouch. The entire team of anti-aircraft gunners, led by the foreman, gathered near Sonya. The body of a colleague was buried with dignity.
Chapter 10
Making their way through the forest, Vaskov's team unexpectedly ran into the Germans. In a split second, the foreman threw a grenade forward, machine-gun bursts crackled. Not knowing the forces of the enemy, the Nazis decided to retreat.
During a short fight, Galya Chetvertak could not overcome her fear and did not participate in the shooting. For this behavior, the girls wanted to condemn her at the Komsomol meeting, however, the commander stood up for the confused anti-aircraft gunner.
Despite severe fatigue, wondering about the reasons for the delay in help, the foreman goes on reconnaissance, taking Galina with him for educational purposes.
Chapter 11
Galya was very much frightened by the real events taking place. A dreamer and a writer, she often plunged into a fictional world, and therefore the picture of a real war knocked her out of a rut.
Vaskov and Chetvertak soon found two bodies of German soldiers. By all indications, the soldiers wounded in the shootout were finished off by their own comrades. Not far from this place, the remaining 12 Fritzes continued reconnaissance, two of whom came very close to Fedot and Gala.
The foreman reliably hid Galina behind the bushes and hid himself in the stones, but the girl could not cope with her feelings and jumped out of the shelter with a cry right under the gunfire of the Germans. Vaskov began to lead the Germans away from his remaining soldiers and ran to the swamp, in which he took refuge.
During the chase, he was wounded in the arm. When dawn broke, the foreman saw Liza's skirt in the distance, then he realized that now he could not count on help.
Chapter 12
Under the yoke of heavy thoughts, the foreman went in search of the Germans. Trying to understand the enemy's train of thought and examining the tracks, he came across the Legontov skete. From hiding, he watched as a group of 12 fascists hid explosives in an old hut.
The saboteurs left two soldiers to guard, one of whom was wounded. Vaskov managed to neutralize a healthy guard and take possession of his weapon.
The foreman, Rita and Zhenya met on the bank of the river, in the place where they portrayed lumberjacks. After going through terrible trials, they began to treat each other like brothers. After a halt, they began to prepare for the last battle.
Chapter 13
Vaskov's team held the coastal defenses as if the whole Motherland was behind them. But the forces were unequal, and the Germans still managed to cross to their shore. Rita was severely wounded by a grenade explosion.
To save the foreman and the wounded friend, Zhenya, firing back, ran farther into the forest, leading the saboteurs with her. The girl was wounded in the side by a blind shot from the enemy, but she did not even think to hide and wait out.
Already lying in the grass, Zhenya fired until the Germans shot her point-blank.
Chapter 14
Fedot Evgrafych, bandaging Rita and filling her with spruce paws, wanted to go in search of Zhenya and things. For peace of mind, he decided to leave her a revolver with two cartridges.
Rita understood that she was mortally wounded, she was only afraid that her son would be left an orphan. Therefore, she asked the foreman to take care of Albert, telling that it was from him and from her mother that she returned that morning when she encountered German soldiers.
Vaskov made such a promise, but did not have time to move away from Rita a few steps, as the girl shot herself in the temple.
The foreman buried Rita, and then found and buried Zhenya. The wounded arm ached badly, the whole body burned with pain and tension, but Vaskov decided to go to the skete to kill at least one more German. He managed to neutralize the sentry, five Fritzes were sleeping in the skete, one of whom he shot at once.
Having forced them to tie each other, barely alive, he led them into captivity. Only when Vaskov saw the Russian soldiers did he allow himself to lose consciousness.
Epilogue
Some time after the war, in a letter to his friend, a tourist describes amazing quiet places in the region of two lakes. In the text, he also mentions one old man without an arm, who came here with his son Albert Fedotych, a rocket captain.
Subsequently, this tourist, together with his new comrades, installed a marble slab with the names on the grave of the anti-aircraft gunners.
Conclusion
The piercing story of female heroism during the Great Patriotic War leaves an indelible mark in the hearts. The author repeatedly emphasizes in his narrative about the unnaturalness of the participation of women in hostilities by their nature, and the blame for this lies with the one who unleashed the war.
In 1972, director Stanislav Rostotsky made a film based on the story. He dedicated it to the nurse who carried him off the battlefield, saving him from certain death.
Margarita Stepanovna Osyanina is one of the main heroines of the famous story "The Dawns Here Are Quiet" by the famous Soviet writer Boris Lvovich Vasiliev. Using her example, the author shows what grief the war brought, how it crippled the fate of people.
Rita got married at seventeen. Young Mushtakova met her future husband Lieutenant Osyanin at a school evening dedicated to meeting the heroes of the border guards. Soon they got married, and the happy Margarita, now Osyanina, left her home for the border outpost, where her husband served. There she was enrolled in various circles and elected to the women's council. All this happened in 1939. In 1940, Rita had a child, and her son was given the name Albert. The boy was only a year old when the Great Patriotic War began.
Margarita has always been restrained and reasonable, in the first days of the war such traits of her character as courage, fortitude, stubbornness were revealed. She did not give in to panic and immediately began to provide first aid to the wounded. Several times Rita was forcibly sent from the front line to the rear, but she stubbornly returned back. Finally she was taken as a nurse, and six months later she was sent to study at the regimental anti-aircraft school.
Her husband died on the second day of the war, Osyanina found out about this only in July. In May, she placed her son Albert in the care of her parents.
After graduating from the training, senior sergeant Osyanina, at her personal request, was sent to an anti-aircraft regiment, standing at the site of the outpost, where her husband heroically died. At the new place of service, Margarita kept herself apart. She was surrounded by young girls. And the point here is not in age, but in life experience, or rather in its absence. Rita herself knew in practice what a family was. Having become a mother, she understood what it means to be responsible for someone's life. That true love has little to do with falling in love. The relationship with the more serious platoon commander Kiryanova also did not work out. And oddly enough, Zhenya, the complete opposite of her, became Rita's best friend. So different in character, they found a common goal, or rather a common personal account - an account with the war. From both girls, she took away the most precious thing in life - a family.
Until the very last minute, Rita continued to think about her son, she was responsible for his life, as well as for the lives of those around her. Having received a shrapnel wound from a grenade, she realized that she would become a burden, and, having made a decision, told Vaskov about her son Albert, asking him to take care of him. Having received a positive answer, Osyanina shot herself in the head, thereby giving another person a chance to survive.
Rita Osyanina is an example of courage and heroism shown in the war. She managed to endure the loss of her husband, found the strength to live on, to live in order to raise her son, to help her mother and the Fatherland. And even her death is a heroic act. Osyanina is an example of a real person to whom everyone should strive.
Essay about Rita Osyanina
One of the main heroines of the story "The Dawns Here Are Quiet" is the anti-aircraft gunner Rita Osyanina. A beautiful young girl whose fate is torn by war. She was born in a simple family, at the age of 17 she got married. She met her future husband while still in 9th grade. To the envy of her friends and classmates, she married before anyone else, out of great love. A year later, a son was born, whom they named Albert. During the war, she served as a nurse, and then became an anti-aircraft gunner. The husband died in the war. The son stayed with his grandmother, who is very ill. Rita's son is only three years old.
This girl is very brave, reliable, reasonable. She is ready to fight for victory, no matter what. With everyone he behaves very restrained, sometimes even constrained. Despite her age, she commands her subordinates with might and main. She behaves very secretively, after the death of her husband, she does not look at other men, she is a loving mother for her son. People find her very strange. Her mental trauma - the loss of her husband at the very beginning of the war, leaves her no chance to remain that young and cheerful girl. She loved her husband very much, and now only a memory and a little son on the growls remained of him.
Margarita is highly respected and trusted by her superiors. She is in good standing, because qualities such as reliability and courage are so important in wartime.
Zhenya Komelkova, with whom Rita became close by chance, somehow influences her. After all, Zhenya is a mischievous and cheerful nature. She helps Rita to become a little more open, because they, despite the differences, have some similarities. Zhenya lost her entire family due to the war, but continues to believe in a bright future.
Fedor Vaskov considers Margarita a very thoughtful girl and treats her well. During the shootout, Rita is mortally wounded and realizes that she is unlikely to survive. Then she asks Fedor to look after and take care of her son. Realizing that she will not recover from this wound, Rita shoots herself in the temple. Vaskov, of course, keeps his promise and her son Albert grows up and considers Fedor his father.
Option 3
Margarita Osyanina is the main character in the famous work “The Dawns Here Are Quiet”. The example of the main character shows well how cruel the war is, how unjust everything was then, and how much grief the war brought to people.
Margarita got married very early, at only seventeen years old. The young girl met her future husbands at a meeting with the heroes of the border guards. Rita had an affair with Lieutenant Osyanin, and they soon got married. Then the still young Margarita left for her husband to live at the frontier post. There the girl attended various circles and sections, was a member of the women's council. The action takes place in 1939. Already in 1940, the couple had a son, Albert. The son was only a year old when the war began.
Margarita can be assessed as a courageous, attentive and sensible girl who can stand up to all the "gifts" of fate. All her courage is especially evident during the war years. The girl did not panic, but pulled herself together and helped those in need.
Unfortunately, Rita's husband died on the second day of the war, and the girl learned about the tragedy only in July.
After graduating from her studies, Margarita herself expressed a desire to go to the regiment where her deceased husband worked. Arriving at the place, Ossvyanina did not immediately make friends, basically, she kept aloof from everyone. She was wild about everything that was around. Couple, she was even afraid of everything, but did not show it. There were mostly only young girls around. Rita differed from them not even in age, but in her life experience. Only when the girl had a son did she realize how valuable life is. Over time, Rita had a girlfriend - the complete opposite of a girl. Her name is Zhenya. They were brought together by the grief that overtook the girls. They two lost their family. The main goal of young women is to do everything to end this hell (war).
Osyanina did not want to be a burden for her son, so she found a person who would take care of her son. Then, unfortunately, she shot herself in the head and died.
Rita Osyanina is an example of courage and heroism. Real woman. She is resilient, helps everyone and does not go astray. Even her death is an example of a heroic act. Rita is a real Human.
