Peasants (1934 Film)
A peasant is a pre-industrial agricultural laborer or a farmer with limited land-ownership, especially one living in the Middle Ages under feudalism and paying rent, tax, fees, or services to a landlord. In Europe, three classes of peasants existed: slave, serf, and free tenant. Peasants might hold title to land either in fee simple or by any of several forms of land tenure, among them socage, quit-rent, leasehold, and copyhold. In some contexts, "peasant" has a pejorative meaning, even when referring to farm laborers. As early as in 13th-century Germany, the concept of "peasant" could imply "rustic" as well as "robber", as the English term villain/villein. In 21st-century English, the word "peasant" can mean "an ignorant, rude, or unsophisticated person". The word rose to renewed popularity in the 1940s–1960s as a collective term, often referring to rural populations of developing countries in general, as the "semantic successor to 'native', incorporating all its conde ...

Counterplan (film)
''Counterplan'' (russian: Встречный, Vstrechnyy) is a 1932 Soviet drama film directed by Sergei Yutkevich and Fridrikh Ermler. The film's title song, "The Song of the Counterplan", composed by Dmitri Shostakovich with lyrics by the poet Boris Kornilov, became world famous. Shostakovich's composition, with new lyrics by Jeanne Perret, would be used shortly after in the notable song of the French socialist movement, "Au-devant de la vie". The same theme can be found before in Igor Stravinsky’s ''Petrushka'' and Sergei Taneyev’s first symphony. Shostakovich was to use the piece again in his ''Poem of the Motherland'' (1947), another film entitled '' Mitchurin'' (1948) and his 1958 operetta '' Moscow, Cheremushki!''. In 1942 the song was given English words by Harold J. Rome under the title " United Nations on the March" and in this guise it was featured as the choral finale to MGM's patriotic war-time musical ''Thousands Cheer'' (1943). That same year, Leopold Stokow ...
