На уроке литературы в третьем классе сельской школы происходит ЧП. Прочтя стихотворение Лермонтова «Узник», учитель отворачивается к доске и получает бумажным шариком в затылок. Провинившийся Еркен не может привести в школу никого из родственников: мать умерла, отец уехал и завел новую семью, а старший брат учится в городе. Отправленный к директору хулиган, которого некому воспитывать, смиренно переносит заслуженное наказание — два щелбана. Ненадолго приехавший старший брат занимается с младшим вольной борьбой дома на ковре и учит его быть мужественным, хотя по самостоятельности и умению справляться с обстоятельствами Еркен, похоже, давно превосходит многих из своих взрослых односельчан.

"Three brothers live in a small village somewhere in Kazakhstan. Nearby is the small station, where an elderly man, who has had the nickname Klein since he was in a concentration camp in the Second World War, rules the roost. ... The children ask inquisitively about the nature of his activities, as nothing seems to happen. He tells them that he supplies a local military base with material. Klein starts telling them different stories, for instance about the beautiful lake where the officers spend their spare time and where life is as beautiful as the women. The picture he sketches of this lake is so attractive to the three brothers and their friends that they resolve to go there. They know from the old man that it will cost money, because life is dear. Tri brata is not a children's film, but a fairy-tale about today's world with its military aircraft on one side and an elderly man with his railway material on the other." - IFFR
