Plot synopsis
The main character who is the president of the district revolutionary tribunal, comrade Kovalev, believes that a real revolutionary has only one love, the revolution. And women, particularly those who are attractive really disrupt comrade Kovalev.
but it is unable to connect theory to practice. Love will defeat the ridiculous prejudices of our hero who, incidentally, will win his true victory by destroying a criminal band of counter revolutionaries.
