Chatuy

Ukraine in the early 1930s. A former kulak infiltrates one of the collective farms under the guise as a fire victim called Podorozhny. As a merry accordion player and handyman, he quickly becomes one of the collective farm. Soon he commits a number of crimes that impede the normal work of the collective farm, and then with the help of local kulaks he organizes the theft of collective farm horses. However, at a crossing, the ferryman detains the criminals. Meanwhile, a delegation from a sponsored factory arrives at the collective farm. One of the delegation's members recognizes Podorozhny as the kulak who killed the village council chairman and fled from prison.
