Summary: Untimely Affection?
Review: Veronica and Boris are in love and they are planning their next meeting. When Boris wakes up the next day he finds out that war has been declared and World War II is about to commence. Boris has thought of enlisting with his best friend to help his country. However, he also knows it would hurt Veronica's feelings if he left for the war. Can he make a decision that could hurt his only love's heart? Knowing that this film was filmed during the Soviet era when film was closely supervised and censored by the Soviet government, fed propaganda lines can be understood.
