A young girl is in a room full of, well, all sorts of, things... She plays with stuff... She is very cute and fun to watch, and Nikita's debut shows already what a great sense for camera movement he possesses. Despite the lack of dialogues, the film isn't boring, and has this unique atmosphere that you often meet in Russian films. Sound and music editing is a bit clumsy, but that might have been on purpose...

In 1944, the front line was shifting to the west, towards the border. The war ended in some places but peaceful life was yet to begin.

Following the Russian Civil War, a loyal Red, Shilov, must prove he is at home among strangers as he attempts to recapture a shipment of gold that he was supposed to deliver to Moscow. Needed as a means of buying food for the people, the gold Shilov was entrusted with is stolen, initially by a group of assassins and then by a group of bandits. In tracking the gold’s whereabouts, Shilov’s motives are questioned and he is suspected of treason, in part because his brother was a devoted White. In an effort to clear his name, Shilov locates the gold, but he also discovers rampant greed and corruption.

The story follows Maria Konovalova who travels from her rural village to visit her daughter Nina in the city. Maria's arrival exposes the stark contrasts between rural and urban lifestyles and reveals deep-seated family tensions. Interestingly, Родня (Rodnya) in Russian sounds very similar to the word Родина (Rodina), which means "Motherland." The film features three generations of women — Maria, her daughter Nina, and her granddaughter Irina — symbolizing three different Russias: one from the past, one modern, and one representing the future.

1943 год, разгар Великой Отечественной войны. Митя (Олег Меньшиков) находит Котова (Никита Михалков) в рядах штрафного батальона стоящего у стен некоей цитадели. Котов, чтобы избежать встречи с Митей, поднимает штрафников в атаку, Митя вынужден идти под шквальный огонь противника, так как в траншею ему не дают вернуться заградотрядовцы. Котов остается невредим, а впоследствии реабилитирован и удостоен звания генерал-лейтенанта. Уцелевший Митя и Котов едут в дом, в котором когда-то жил сам комдив со своей семьей (дом, фигурирующий в первой части). Однако, Котова дома никто не ждал, так как считалось, что он был расстрелян (в соответствии с 58-ой статьей). Маруся (Виктория Толстоганова) растит ребёнка от Кирика (Владимир Ильин), а все фотографии, хоть как-то связанные с Котовым и Надей, убраны по комодам. Таким образом, своим приездом Котов нарушает покой домочадцев, и на следующий день вся семья решает уехать тайком. Комдив застает их на вокзале, но решает отпустить. Позже Сталин приказывает Котову провести сложнейшую операцию: повести в лобовую атаку тысячи неподготовленных людей для того, чтобы оборонявшиеся истратили боезапас, это дало бы возможность провести штурм цитадели с малыми потерями среди солдат. Прибывшим в окопы цитадели раздают черенки от лопат. Первым в атаку идёт Котов.
