The story of family drama, ruin, and fragile hope sounds emotional and tense. Before the audience is Andrei Eshpai's film based on Fyodor Dostoevsky's novel, where at the center lies not only a love story but also a whole knot of human dependencies, calculations, grievances, and moral choices.

The plot revolves around Ivan Petrovich, the Ikhmenyov family, Prince Valkovsky, Natasha, Alyosha, and the orphan Nelly. This storyline immerses into a world where there are no simple solutions and almost every character carries their own pain.
