The trials of an idealistic young graduate who takes a teaching post in a remote Siberian village in pre-revolutionary Russia. Her husband, a Lenin compatriot, fights when the Soviet revolution begins. The film then looks how she then experiences the events of the early 20th century.
Powerfully intertwining the life trajectories of a young woman with the politics of pre-revolutionary Russia, this little-known gem of early Soviet cinema excels for its distinctive, ambitiously executed filmmaking. A gripping story that chronicles almost 30 years in the history of the country.
