One of Russian`s most influential and important literary figures, Maxim Gorky wrote his widely read autobiography in 1913. This 1938 film adapts the moving and lyrical book to the big screen, capturing Gorky`s dramatic childhood in beautiful black and white. Against a backdrop of tumult and poverty, the boy is shown in his formative 12th year, when he has just been put into his grandparents` custody. Poor yet optimistic, the boy`s grandparents are among the heartwarming lower class characters who prove that poverty does not have to equal despair.
