The plot takes place between 1937 to 1947, in a little, traditional Hutsul village in Northern Bukovina. The Zvonars are a poor family of musicians, who eke out a living by performing in the local celebrations. Both older brothers, Petro and Orest, are in love with Dana, the priest's beautiful daughter. Their younger brother, Heorhii, is a dreamlike adolescent who is attracted to the village's witch, Vivdya. In 1940, the Romanian authorities cede the territory to the Soviets. Dana falls for a Red Army officer named Ostap and decides to marry him. On the day of their wedding, the Germans and Romanians invade. Ostap has to return to his unit, and Petro leaves the band to join the Red Army. Orest seduces Dana and takes her to the mountains, where he joins the Ukrainian nationalists and subsequently, the Ukrainian Insurgent Army. After three years of brutal Romanian occupation, Ostap and Petro return as the Soviets retake the area. They attempt to introduce progress, bringing the villagers a modern tractor. Dana abandons Orest and returns to the village. He ties Ostap to the tractor and sets it aflame; Petro attempts to save him, but both die. When he visits a wedding to dance with Dana, older Heorhii and the villagers finally decide to confront him. He commits suicide when he is cornered. Heorhii studies medicine and becomes a doctor under the new Soviet system.

The story is set in Ukrainian lands of the Crown of the Kingdom of Poland of the 17th century during the Khmelnytsky Uprising 1648-51. A Polish knight Skrzetuski and a Cossack otaman Bohun fall in love with the same woman, Helena. Their rivalry unfolds against the backdrop of a Cossack uprising led by Bohdan Khmelnytsky aimed at reclaiming the control of the land from the hands of the Polish nobles. Historic events form a framework for an action- and character-driven plot, and fictional characters mingle with historic ones. The movie, as the book, culminates with the savage Battle of Berestechko.

L'histoire se déroule dans l'Ukraine du XVII siècle. Le vieux colonel ouman Taras Boulba accueille ses deux fils, Ostap et Andreï, rentrés après deux ans d'études au séminaire de Kiev. Il les accompagne vers la Sitch Zaporogue afin de les initier à l'art militaire. Alors qu'ils se trouvent dans le camp, une mauvaise nouvelle leur parvient. Il s'avère que les Polonais ont attaqué le khoutor de Boulba et que sa femme a été tuée. Tarass se joint alors aux cosaques qui affrontent les troupes polonaises. Ils assiègent la ville de Doubno jusqu'à ce que ses habitants commencent à manquer de vivres. Mais le vieux colonel ignore que son cadet, Andreï, est amoureux de la jeune fille du voïvode Mazowiecki, Elżbieta, rencontrée à Kiev, qui se meurt de faim de l'autre côté de la muraille. Une nuit, la servante de Elżbieta amène le jeune homme par le passage souterrain jusqu'à sa maitresse qu'il décide ne plus jamais quitter. Le lendemain, Tarass voit apparaître son fils à la tête de la cavalerie de contre-offensive. Il ordonne alors à ses hommes d'attirer Andreï dans les bois où il le tue après l'avoir renié. Pendant ce temps, son ainé, Ostap, est capturé par l'ennemi et transporté à Varsovie. Aidé de Yankel, le marchand juif jadis sauvé lors d'un pogrome, Tarass vole au secours de son fils, mais arrive juste au moment quand ce dernier se fait exécuter après une séance de torture sur la place publique. Taras fait payer cher la mort d'Ostap, bravant la mort, mais au bout d'un moment son unité est repérée et encerclée. Comprenant que l'ennemi est surtout après lui, il permet à ses compagnons de s'échapper, se laisse faire prisonnier et sera brûlé vif sur le bûcher. Elżbieta donne naissance à un garçon. Elle meurt en couches. Son père, le voïvode Mazowiecki, fou de douleur, prend un sabre et le brandit au-dessus de l'enfant, mais ne parvient pas à tuer un être sans défense qui est en plus son petit-fils.
