Criticism The peculiarity of the story by Dubov, on the basis of which the script Lights on the River was written, lay in its bright, optimistic sound, in the truthful revelation of the characters and psychology of the children. Eisymont was largely able to preserve and convey this peculiarity of the story well. In the film lives joyful, poetic atmosphere of the children's world.
