Abstract
This article describes the Soviet ‘educational-adventure’ film Albidum: A Victory over the Sun (1928). This movie romanticized the peasant household, cooperatives, and genetics. Abram Bragin (an organizer of the Jewish colonization of the Crimea) and the agricultural economist Alexander Chayanov wrote its scenario. This article places the movie in the context of Russian populism and Stalinist collectivization.
