While working on this film, Dovzhenko faced a difficult task of creating a controversial image of a happy new Soviet man and a typical Ukrainian as the same person and resolved this contradiction with a convincing metaphor. In the film, a harmonious peasant existence is destroyed by the appearance of a tractor. Thus, forced mechanization becomes the beginning of the end of the Ukrainian’s mystical connection to his land, which used to underpin the nation’s entire worldview.
