It stars Nina Grebesh- kova and Afanasi Kochetkov; the screen adaption was written by Khrisanf Khersonsky. Mumu is the tender story of a deaf mute named Gerasim who is, as Robert Maguire, Dartmouth Col lege Russian professor, pointed out, at the bottom ... of the hier archy among the servant class. Gerasim (Afansi Kochetkov) is con tent to live as a servant working on the country plains he loves. The humble village neighbors cherish and respect him for his kind, gentle ways. Suddenly Gerasim's mistress decides to seek the luxuries and advantages of city living, and so the lonely servant is wrenched from the land of his childhood. He suffers one reversal after an other, becoming more lost and lonely all the while. Through the selfish whims of his mistress, Ge rasim loses the young girl he loves and the last thing that the deaf mute held dear, his puppy Mumu. When he can bear the evil of the city no longer Gerasim runs away to the simple country atmosphere he loves. The New York Times described Mumu as so reassuring and so satisfying that one can only won der why on earth movies from Hollywood to Moscow don't dip wholesale into the world of classic miniatures . .. obvious that 'Mumu' is conveying simple loneliness and the need for love.
