The Girls (1961 film)
The Girls (Russian: Девчата, translit. Devchata) is a 1961 Soviet comedy directed by Yuri Chulyukin based on a screenplay by Boris Bednyj.
Plot summary
Devchata is a romantic comedy set in an isolated Russian logging camp, c. the late 1950s. A pig-tailed young girl - Tosya (Nadezhda Rumiantseva)- arrives from school with a cooking degree, and joins a group of other women who work in jobs supporting the loggers. Tosya's naivete is reflected in the first exchange we see, where the official who shows her to her quarters seems exasperated when he finds that she has not brought a pillow. Tosya is assigned as a cook for the camp.
Once in her dorm-like room, she cheerfully prepares herself a meal of tea and a giant loaf of bread slathered with jam; all of it from her roommates' food stockpile. When the four other girls return after a day at work, they are generally taken by Tosya's youth and good nature. However, one woman is upset that she is eating her food without permission, and a fight ensues.

by: Burden Of A DayIf I could know the way this ends
I'd then understand
I'll live what It is to be made from the best of you
Let my hands make movement for hearts of the tested few
If I could know the way
The way this ends
I'd then understand (wooh oh wooh oh oh)
If I could know the way (wooh oh wooh oh oh)
I'd see the glory in these hands
I'm placing stone upon stone but this castle Is falling faster than my hands
They're gained the west wall fall back to the stabies
Prepare for the last stand
I end here you start now
Like iron sharpens iron I will make you better you will make me
My best like sea salt to my skin without you
I am but a tasteless man
If I could know the way
The way this ends I'd then understand (wooh oh wooh oh oh)
If I could know the way (wooh oh wooh oh oh)
I'd see the glory in these hands
This is end this is end
This armor weighs but I will fight till I face the sky
If I could know the way (wooh oh wooh oh oh)
If I could know the way
The way this ends
I'd then understand (wooh oh wooh oh oh)
If I could know the way (wooh oh wooh oh oh)
