The New Moscow (Russian: Новая Москва, romanized: Novaya Moskva) is a 1938[1] Soviet sci-fi comedy film directed by Aleksandr Medvedkin[2][3][4] and Aleksandr Olenin. It was banned from showing by Joseph Stalin.[5]
The film tells about the adventures of the young designer Alyosha, who made a living model of the future capital of the Soviet Union, his relationship with his beloved girlfriend Zoya and the relations between the painter Fedya and the pig-tender Olya.
Accompanied by his grandmother, Alyosha travels to Moscow to display his model at a prestigious show.[6]
