Albidum (1928)
Overview
About the struggle of a Soviet agronomist to create a drought-resistant variety of wheat. His work is hampered by bureaucracy. When excellent qualities of Albidum, as the developed variety is called, receive wide recognition and authorities decide to export it, external market monopolies do everything possible to prevent the export of Albidum. The film is considered to be partially lost as only one seven-minute fragment is known and found.
