A biographical picture about the fate of the commander of the Airborne Forces, Hero of the Soviet Union, Army General Vasily Filippovich Margelov. The film covers the period from the forties to the seventies of the twentieth century. This is both the fiery wartime of the Finnish and Great Patriotic Wars, and the post-war period, when the legendary commander created modern Airborne troops. The film is based on the serial film "Paratrooper Dad", which has become a cult among the paratroopers. The stylization of the image under the "Soviet film", the use of chronicles of those years takes the viewer directly to the second half of the twentieth century: the time of the creators, the time of hopes, the time of real heroes.
