Plot

Chief editor of the "Adventure Business" magazine decides to commission a novel from the famous writer Moldavantsev which is to be a continuation of the famous literary creation of Daniel Defoe, Robinson Crusoe. The writer initially takes on his task with great enthusiasm and soon the editor gets to read Moldavantsev's manuscript. Despite the fact that the writer tried to create a "soviet" Robinson, the editor remains deeply unsatisfied. He pressures Moldavantsev to make major adjustments to his work. Union members, a contribution collecting secretary of the local committee, and even a safe - all this, according to the editor must show up, along with Robinson at the supposedly deserted island! The apotheosis of editorial changes becomes the proposal to exclude the character of Robinson from the novel.
