Synopsis
The cash-strapped but beautiful Princess Marusya (Irina Lavrentyeva) falls for the arrogant and money-obsessed Dr. Toporkov (Aleksandr Lazarev) when he makes a house call to see her brother. Unable to produce a suitable dowry for her hand in marriage, Marusya watches as the doctor marries another woman. As Marusya's family falls deeper into financial ruin, and her health declines, she finally admits her feelings to Toporkov -- who realizes his own love for Marusya, though it may be too late.
