Abstract
The 1950s in the history of our cinema became a transitory stage from the “grand style” aesthetics to humanistic realism of the ” Thaw” period. One of the most significant traits of this transition was the appearance of young characters on screen (school pupils, students) who were striving to fulfill themselves and find their own way in life. The article analyzes the images of the young people as they were represented in films of that period.
