Frank Talk.
"I'm only a small fry", – one grandfather we met told us. He was a man who passed and won the war, worked all his life at an aircraft factory, and who raised and brought 5 children and 11 grandchildren. But we do not agree with his words! Millions of such grandfathers and grandmothers are very big people, very important people, people without whom Russia is not Russia, without whom our past, present and future are impossible. Look at them, look at their faces, and admire their beauty! This is real, living, humanistic, honest, and very necessary for all of us.

The Exhibition was visited by people of different nationalities, ages, professions, and positions in society, but all of them were united by one thing: a sincere interest in life, thoughts, feelings of Russian people, and heroes of our Exhibition.
