The 1950s. An old worker Kolyachkin and a former actor Pushkov can not walk to the river to fish, something interferes with them all the time: they take kids to a kindergarten, and an old woman gets work at the house for retired. They bathed the head of construction in the mud on the unrepaired road, weaned a squealer to write denunciations, and bathed a bully and a drunkard in a river to re-educate them. District veterans rated the old men's actions and invited them to the club, which aims to "to help the younger generation to become productive citizens of society".
