Figure 1.-- The movie "Attention the Turtle!" begins with a new teacher coming to school in a fashionably short mini-skirt. |
|
The film begins with a scene, where a young school teacher goes on Moscow street dressed in a fashionable mini-skirt and bright short raincoat. On some distance she is followed by two small girls (1st or 2nd grade), who’s dresses are also very short. But when the teacher comes to school, she hides and rolls down her skirt, takes off a bright raincoat, then puts on glasses to become a “true” teacher. This would have been and inconceivable scene in a Stalinist era film. Children following her also hide and rolls down their skirts, after that run to their teacher and greet her.
