Production

The film's working title was 365 Days. Mikhail Romm assembled a team of people with whom he had never previously worked before.

Popular actors Yury Yakovlev and Alexey Batalov were hired for the main roles. Before the filming started, Yakovlev was hospitalized and had to be replaced with Innokenty Smoktunovsky. For the main female part a young and little-known actress Tatyana Lavrova of the Sovremennik Theatre was invited. The role of Lyolya was Tatiana’s best known role in her film career, later she mainly devoted herself to the theater.

I had great interest in working on my portrayal of Dmitry Gusev. The life of this atomic scientist is filled with a persistent, meaningful and moreover with quite an inconspicuous feat. The role of Gusev especially appeals to me the fact that he is a modern man, deeply intelligent, we can say – a man of the new Soviet formation.

The screenplay was written by Romm jointly with Khrabrovitsky. The cinematographer of the film was a newcomer German Lavrov. In many respects, the picture became a new word in the Soviet cinema. Experts have noted an unusual interpretation of the theme song and sound engineering - in fact there is almost no music, there is only a certain sound accompaniment of the technological sense. The sets of the film were also innovative.

The filming took 6 months. The premiere was on 5 March 1962 at the Rossiya Theatre in Moscow.
