Dersu Uzala

The film opens to a forest that is being cleared for development, and Arsenyev searching for an unmarked grave of a friend he says he buried 3 years ago. The film then flashes back to Arsenyev's surveying expedition to the area of Shkotovsky District in Ussuri krai in 1902. A topographic expedition troop, led by Captain Arsenyev (Yury Solomin), encounters a nomadic Goldi hunter named Dersu Uzala (Maxim Munzuk) who agrees to guide them through the harsh frontier. Initially viewed as an uneducated, eccentric old man, Dersu earns the respect of the soldiers through his great experience, accurate instincts, keen powers of observation, and deep compassion. He repairs an abandoned hut and leaves provisions in a birch container so that a future traveler would survive in the wilderness. He deduces the identities and situations of people by analyzing tracks and articles left behind.
