You and Me (Russian: Ты и я, romanized: Ty i ya) is a 1971 Soviet drama film directed by Larisa Shepitko.^[1][2][3]

The film tells about two doctors who have not abandoned their research work. One of them realized that he had done wrong and decided to change his life.^[4]

Having come close to a groundbreaking discovery in neurosurgery, the protagonist, Pyotr, decides to abandon his scientific work, his colleague in the experiment, and his best friend, leaving to work as a doctor at an embassy in Sweden.

Several years later, dissatisfaction with his job drives him back to Moscow. However, he finds no warm welcome—he is not accepted back into the scientific community, and his best friend refuses to help him despite pleas of Pyotr's wife. Following this rejection, he moves to Siberia. Through various encounters with different people, he gains the courage to overcome his struggles and ultimately returns to his once-abandoned scientific work.
