The director Ducho Mundrov took part in the anti-fascist resistance - he was under death sentence in jail. Drawing from his experience he has made a deeply moving, poetic and humane picture. His film is one example of a wave of poetic films in Bulgarian cinema during 60-s. These films are dealing with the resistance theme, which began, in the late fifties and the early sixties. Here, as in the most of the films of this group, faith in the revolutionary ideals is associated with the moral qualities of the person.

A distinguishing feature of the films made during this period is motive of trust. Here, indeed, it is what drives the action onwards.
