Plot:
The film consists of three independent parts: “Workmate”, “Déjà vu” and “Operation Y”. The plot follows the adventures of Shurik (alternative spelling — Shourick), the naive and nerdy Soviet student who often gets into ludicrous situations but always finds a way out very neatly. “Operation Y and Shurik’s Other Adventures” was a hit movie and became the leader of Soviet film distribution in 1965.
