Comments: Three women aviators, who are involved in the one first non-stop overland flight to the Far East, crash in the Taiga, a search is undertaken for them and they are finally found. The editing emphasis their triumphant homecoming, firstly in Chabarovsk and then in Moscow, thus making one forget about what had nearly been a catastrophe. The film is a masterpiece of cinematic translation of communication, transport and technology.
