The Guest from Mecca

Гость из мекки

The action takes place in the early 1930s in the fictional Asian state of Gulistan. The construction of railways in the country is hampered by a strong foreign state. Under the guise of a “saint from Mecca,” a saboteur-provocateur arrives in Gulistan. Carrying out the will of his masters, he incites the people to hostility against any progressive actions in the country, preparing an uprising with the aim of causing foreign intervention. But the Gulistans expose the “saint”; their faith in the USSR is unshakable...
