The comic film "Nalim" is based on the story of Anton Chekhov in 1885. According to the plot, the peasants tried to pull out a huge налим, which was stuck under a snag. The peasants were joined by a local shepherd, a carpenter and a lordly coachman, and then by the master Andrei Andreich himself, who watched this scene for a long time. As a result, the налим hit Andrey Andreyevich with its tail, and the fish left the hapless fishermen.
