Lizonka, the daughter of the commandant of a fortress on the outskirts of the Russian Empire, dreams of love with a real hero. And the dream comes true - Fyodor Divov appears in their city and in their house, who was exiled to Arkhangelsk for participating in the December events of 1825. The feeling that flared up between the young people was mutual, but instead of a wedding, fate prepared for them difficult trials. Only a few words - “I will love you” - became a bright beacon for Lisa, indicating the true path to the only possible true happiness. Words for which you can forgive everything.
