In 1920, three years after the October Revolution, the population is forced to choose between embracing Bolshevism or pursuing national self‑determination. Amid the turmoil, a comedian named Volodya tries to bridge not opposing politics but the gap between everyday life and art. While many seek to escape the gloom, he reflects on ordinary sorrows and defends the vital role of art in a rapidly changing society.
