Synopsis

A musical television film based on the play by A.V. Sukhovo-Kobylin. The comedy "Krechinsky's Wedding" by Alexander Vasilyevich Sukhovo-Kobylin, written in the mid-19th century, is one of the finest works of Russian drama. The action of the play resembles a card game, where the stakes are Happiness, Life, and Honor. The characters' desire to preserve their dignity and find freedom from the gray everyday life and routine sounds extremely modern. The main character of the play, now in his twilight years, has realized the meaninglessness of his life's journey and is now fighting for at least a small "piece" of simple human happiness.
