Plot synopsis
Pushkin is young, daring and loved by the public: he is the star of any ball, fans carry him in their arms, and girls dream of his attention. But neither high patrons, nor loyal friends, nor fame can ward off evil fate from him - exile, duels, lack of money. Until one day he meets the one and only who will illuminate his life and become his destiny. The destiny of a genius whom we have yet to truly get to know.
