Cast

Critical response

Alexander Fedorov noted: "In reality, we've received the usual mix of 'grim reaper'—dreary, oppressive, monotonous. And even good actresses, though they try to liven up the script's formulas, succeed only in the few episodes where a spark of sincerity glimmers".[6] The magazine Iskusstvo Kino in those years wrote: “The film is a rather strange mixture of a newspaper article about the morals of an orphanage and a tabloid story about a lost and found child".[7] It is also included in the booklet by the Republic of Tatarstan titled Film therapy in the preparation of volunteers for work with minors.
