It seemed that the happy family life of Vasilisa Selezneva cracked all at once. Her husband took a lover—a young, insolent colleague at work. Their separation turned out painful, and there was even a scandal, but having reasoned sensibly that this bastard wasn’t worth her tears, Vasilisa started life anew from a clean slate. However, as one song says, “and eternal battle—peace only dreams of us…”
One wonderful morning, Vasilisa was delivered to a police station, where she was charged with the murder of the bitch-lover. Realizing that this is a monstrous misunderstanding or someone’s evil scheme, Mrs. Selezneva is determined to sort out the situation and clear her own honest name.
