Pre revolution tale of feudal Russia.
A commonly told Russian story about two peasants in the vast countryside who wish to marry but circumstances prevent this for a time. His family's house burns down and so she has to go to either Moscow or St. Petersburg and becomes a governess for a slimy aristocrat. A very similar plotline occurs for Avdotya Romanovna Raskolnikova in Fyodor Dostoevsky's Crime and Punishment. The film by itself isn't great. It's pretty basic and some might call it formulaic but it's workable. The biggest reason tob watch this is honesly as a piece of pre-Soviet Russian history. After all this is a film made 5 years before the Russian Revolution.
