Tractor Drivers ( Russian: Трактористы, romanized: Traktoristy) is a 1939 Soviet romantic comedy drama film directed by Ivan Pyryev. [1] [2] [3]
In the 1930s, the demobilized tank driver Klim Yarko returns to his kolkhoz on the Ukrainian steppe, where Mariana Bazhan works as the master of speed plowing. This results in her having a lot of admirers, which she does not appreciate. To dissuade her suitors, Mariana asks Nazar Duma to pretend to be her fiancé. [4]
The March of the Soviet Tankmen from this film was widely used in pre-war Soviet propaganda, while other tunes became popular songs, and are still performed.
Tractor Drivers 2 was a parody film made in 1991, whose plot is loosely based on that of Tractor Drivers.
