The Days of the Turbins (Russian: Дни Турбиных, romanized: Dni Turbinykh) is a 1976 Soviet three-part television drama film.
In Kiev, during the winter of 1918-1919, power in the city passes successively from the Hetman to the Directorate of Ukraine to Petliura and to the Bolsheviks.
Colonel Alexei Turbin and his brother Nicholas remain loyal to the White movement, bravely defend it, and do not worry about their lives.
Elena's (née Turbin) husband, Vladimir Talberg, flees shamefully from the city with the retreating German troops.
A strange and slightly ridiculous person comes to visit them and is a distant relative of the Turbins, Larion Surzhansky (Lariosik).
