A young man arrives in a village to visit his uncle, a retired colonel, and finds the local community "enslaved" by a man who, according to him, "will remain in history." The situation develops into a tragicomedy and takes on elements of phantasmagoria.

The film tells the story of the tragic events of 1837 that led to the duel and death of the great poet.

Marina, once “burned” in matters of the heart, promises herself that she will never get married. And men will... only be “used.” She has a private hotel in the very center of St. Petersburg. With her exceptional beauty, Marina attracts many admirers to the hotel, without giving any of them the slightest hope of reciprocity. But one day, Konstantin Solomatin, a naval officer, captain of the first rank, and... an inveterate misogynist, stops at her hotel. He not only does not have loving feelings for our heroine, but also manages, in a fit of anger, to insult her by hinting that she leads the life of a kept woman. The wounded Marina decides to take revenge on the captain: to make him fall in love with her at all costs, and then make him suffer from unrequited love...

A television performance based on the works of Sergey Dovlatov. Recorded and edited performance by the Mossovet Theatre, initially directed by M. Sonnenstral, and completed after his sudden death by O. Anokhina.
