The story of the novel revolves around Catherine "Florence Poe," a young teenage girl who appears strong and beautiful, and whose family married her to the son of a wealthy man who owned one of the mines in Mtsensk, and who was years older than her. The film begins where the woman is announced as her wife in front of everyone. She is wearing an elegant wedding dress and the priest is performing the marriage ceremony. She was facing the situation with strange indifference, while we sense from her facial features that there were many thoughts constantly burning in her mind. On the wedding night, her maid, Anna (Naomi Akai), enters the room with her, takes off her wedding dress, combs her long hair, and dresses her in a white abaya that covers her entire body, so that the husband enters. Alexander "Paul Hilton" After the maid leaves, the husband gives specific instructions: "Do not leave the palace." She responds, "I hate loneliness. Do not open the windows." She responds, "I adore the outdoors. Cover yourself with heavy covers. It is very cold here." She responds, "No, I am colder."
