In October 1918, French pilots were called upon to enroll as volunteers in the French Expeditionary Force. Twenty-year-old Joseph Kessel, a junior lieutenant, boards a ship in Brest. Vladivostok is a city where the law of the jungle rules. A former barracks that became a haven for six thousand prostitutes. Ataman Semenov and his Cossacks, terrifying everyone. One night, in the Aquarium cabaret, young Joseph meets Lena, a singer, fragile and sad. Thus begins a love story, strange and painful, coinciding with the collapse of the old world.
