The film consists of two parts: “Insomnia” and “Departure”. We shall meet Lev Tolstoy in the final years of his life at Yasnaya Polyana. We shall see him surrounded by his family, friends, acquaintances and absolute strangers who were coming to the great man and artist from all over the world. We shall hear “the voice of his thoughts”. In his sleepless nights, we shall follow his memory of the happy youthful years and the crucial, hard ones. We shall witness Tolstoy’s tragic departure from Yasnaya Polyana and his death at an obscure little station of Astapovo.

For a short vacation at her factory school, she travels from Sverdlovsk to Moscow following the unreliable traces of this letter. Yelena Alekseyevna — the woman she finds when she arrives at the address turns out to be a teacher in a ballet school, the wife of an ordinary senior teacher at the Moscow Technical Institute (who didn't defend his dissertation and is complacent about this) and an old-Moscow intellectual. She kindly meets her, but she is not the person Olga is looking for, she only has the same last name and first name and consonant middle name. She is kind and hospitable, ready to help the girl find her real mother and offers Olga to visit her house during a short stay in Moscow.

Taken from a Lermontov play, Sergei Gerasimov's Maskarad (1941) begins when beautiful Nina (Makarova) loses a bracelet during a masked ball. Another woman finds it and without revealing whose bracelet it belongs to, she gives it to an ardent Calvary officer admirer at the ball. This leads to deeper and deeper incisions upon the urbane social body of Tsarist Russia. A drama of pride, marital distrust, gambling, infidelity and humiliation twirls around the decaying corpse of a perverted social class.

В основе сюжета — воспоминания английского летчика Ральфа Чадвика в 1944 году оказавшегося на территории Советского Союза. После того, как его бомбардировщик был сбит фашистами, тяжело раненого летчика подобрала русская учительница Екатерина Ивановна и ухаживала за больным, пряча его в подвале школы. У них был маленький друг — бесстрашный школьник Васюков. Когда Чадвик окреп, они втроем пошли к партизанам. Пробиваясь через немецкий заслон, герои вступили в бой — и женщина получила тяжелое ранение. Последние метры были невыносимо трудными, но все трое добрались до отряда. Чадвика вскоре переправили в Москву — и герои расстались навсегда.
