Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Dersu Uzala (Дерсу Узала) is a nonfiction book written by Vladimir Arsenyev, a Russian officer sent on a series of exploration missions in the Siberian Far East at the turn of the 20th century. The book is named after an indigenous nomadic hunter whom Arsenyev befriended, and whose life was one of primal symbiosis with the harsh environment.The book was made into a movie on two occasions, the second and more famous adaptation being that of Akira Kurosawa in 1975. The film, a Russian production in the Russian language, is the only film of Kurosawa's career in a language other than Japanese. It's also one of two Kurosawa films to win the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film—the other being Rashomon—and one of four Russian films to win the award, the others being the 1968 adaptation of War and Peace, Moscow Does Not Believe in Tears (1980), and Burnt by the Sun (1994).Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })

Chekhov's Gun: A literal, if unconventional, example. When Dersu returns to the wild for the last time Arseniev insists on giving him his Winchester rifle. The rifle is missing when Dersu's body is found later, implying that he was murdered for it.

Bamboo Technology: Save for his rifle, Dersu has no modern gear at all (and his rifle is described as being an antique he inherited from his father). With just a knife and what nature has to offer, however, he can craft pretty much anything he might need. Many times with actual bamboo, not uncommon in the taiga.

Crazy Survivalist: At least once the Russians laughs of what they consider Dersu's excessive zeal on fire making or camping. Needless to say, he's always right, so the others soon learn to shut up and start digging/lumbering/actually doing something.
