Synopsis

After years of absence from St. Petersburg comes Eletskaya (Lidiya Dranovskaya) to her estate together with her husband (Sergei Kurilov). The young couple are met by a poor nobleman Kuzovkin (Boris Chirkov), a boarder at the home of Eletskaya. Her husband and the surrounding landowners who are laden with boredom from the monotony of the provincial life, make fun of the old man, humiliating his personal dignity. Unable to withstand the bullying, Kuzovkin publicly declares that the woman of the house is his daughter. At the insistence of Eletskiy, the old man leaves the house of his daughter.
