Directed by Vasisli Pichul and released in 1988 "Little Vera" received the European Film Award for best screenplay as well as the special jury prize at Montreal. Looking at the wider context of the film, this text observes its use of space and representations of complex family relationships, placing "Little Vera" within the context of youth cinema and overturning its reputation in the West as the "first ever Soviet sex film".
