About this movie

A beautiful, pure, innocent peasant girl from a neighboring village is romanced by a seductive, handsome yet cunning aristocrat. The Russian Empire's 18th-century class system is exposed in a drama phantasma as the author of the sentimentalist movement, Nikolai Karamzin appears as a ghostly narrator to lament this tale of betrayal and the unraveling of a youthful soul at the hands of high society.
