The book 'The Story of Asya Klyachina. (Un)Repeatable,' compiled by film historians Stanislav Dedinsky and Natalia Ryabchikova, uses documents from the archives of the Mosfilm studio, the Russian State Archive of Literature and Art (Gosfilmofond of the Russian Federation), and the Russian State Archive of Literature and Art (RGALI), as well as materials from Andrei Konchalovsky's personal archive, to uncover the story of how this film came to be and why audiences only saw it two decades later. Why was Yuri Klepikov's debut screenplay rewritten several times during production? How did the director manage to combine the stage actress Iya Savvina with ordinary residents of the Volga region? What explains the film's title changes—from 'The Year of the Quiet Sun' to 'Asya's Happiness' and 'The Story of Asya Klyachina'? Which sections of the film were the most fiercely contested by censors? And how exactly did audiences and critics perceive it in the 1960s, 1980s, and beyond?
