Plot synopsis
April 14, 1930. The evening before his suicide. Mayakovsky visiting the writer Kataev. With him are the actors of the Moscow Art Theatre Livanov and Yanshin. Kataev recalls: "It was an ordinary Moscow party. We were sitting in the dining room. Tea, cookies, three bottles of Riesling." Friends noticed that Vladimir was not himself. But none of them could have imagined that Mayakovsky would shoot himself with a Browning, given to him by the head of the Secret Department of the OGPU, Agranov.
Mayakovsky is one of the most beloved poets of the Soviet government. By order of Stalin, he will have a state funeral
