Directed by Ilya Kazan, based on the works of John Steinbeck, it is a variation of the biblical story of Cain and Abel and evolved into a very deep and powerful family ethics film. The story tells the story of a smart and sentimental peasant youth in California before World War I. because he had not been loved by his strict father, he deliberately tried to crack down on his naive twin brothers and revealed the truth that his mother was reduced to a pimp before the death of his mother. a tragedy that eventually led to the destruction of the family.
