''Train Stop – Two Minutes'' (russian: Стоянка поезда – две минуты, Stoyanka poyezda — dve minuty) is a 1972 Soviet television musical film directed by Mark Zakharov and Aleksandr Orlov.

Plot

From Moscow to the provincial town of Nizhnie Volchki comes a young and handsome doctor Igor Maksimov to work. He is liked by his colleagues, including the young nurse Alyona. However, life in a small town quickly gets boring for Igor, since there is no customary urbanization for the modern Muscovite in the Nizhnie Volchki, and the population is rarely sick and the local clinic is often empty, which means that neuropathologist Igor simply does not have anyone on whom to practice. He begins to miss the metropolitan life, friends and beloved woman – a famous pop singer. Alyona, realizing that Igor is almost ready to go back to Moscow, she decides to make him stay and turns for help to an eccentric local peasant Vasily, who has the gift of a real magician.
