Wiki.
The Day Passed (Azerbaijani: Gün Keçdi) is a 1971 Azerbaijani romantic drama film directed by Arif Babayev. It stars Leyla Shikhlinskaya as Asmar, Hasan Mammadov as Ogtay, and Hasanagha Turabov as Ogtay's colleague. It is an adaptation of the novel "Georgian Surname" by Azerbaijani author Anar Rzayev. Rzayev published the novel in 1967 and later adapted it into a screenplay himself.
The film tells the story of two reconciled childhood friends as they reflect on their past, and also encapsulates the atmosphere and soul of Baku at the time. The title refers to the characters' inability to change their past and what has already happened.
Upon release, The Day Passed garnered widespread popularity and critical acclaim in Azerbaijan. It is now considered one of the best Azerbaijani films from the 1970s.
