The Stove on Wheels (1985)
The heroine of the comedy is Frosya, a mother of five children and a calf-maiden, who lives in a run-down village and doesn't want to leave her native home, her "stove on wheels." The lead role is played by Natalia Tenyaeva. The true city dweller is remarkably natural in the role of a simple village girl. The actress borrowed her manner of speech from a local villager whose house was near the summer house Tenyaeva rented.
Directors: Boris Shchedrin, Aleksandr Pokrovsky.
