Abstract
The paper is focused on some key features of Bumbarash (1972), TV movie by N. Rasheev and A. Narodnitsky, to form it’s perception by the Russian intelligentsia of the late Soviet epoch. The movie was based on some short stories by A. Gaidar (1904–1941) demonstrated the mechanics of dehumanization to be inherited by any civil war. The very special narrative of “Bumbarash” which integrates elements of various genres is rather untypical for the mainstream Soviet representation of the Russian Revolution. That has formed the unique perception of the movie by Russian intellectuals.
