Genres Drama, War, Action
16 septembre 1941. Quelques jours après le début du siège de Leningrad, un jeune couple, Kostya Gorelov et Nastya Tkachyova, embarque à bord d'une péniche, la 752, qui doit permettre à un grand nombre de personnes de fuir la ville assiégée par les Allemands. Parmi eux, un enquêteur de la NKVD qui a enquêté sur le père de Kostya. Malgré la vétusté du navire, ce dernier, Nikolai Gorelov, y fait tout de même monter plus de mille personnes et refuse que son fils soldat aille se battre contre l'ennemi. Mais, rapidement, leur périple s'avère être risqué lorsqu'il traverse le lac Ladoga en pleine tempête. La péniche tangue dangereusement et menace de couler jusqu'au moment où des avions survolent les passagers. Mais ils constatent qu'ils ne viennent pas pour les secourir mais plutôt pour les bombarder. Une tragédie qui, en raison de l'assaut des allemands sur le navire et la gigantesque tempête, se termina par le naufrage du bateau. Malgré leurs efforts pour survivre, peu de personnes survécurent à cette catastrophe.

Katerina (Vera Alentova) is a serious, upstanding woman who strives to earn her chemistry degree while working at a factory. She is asked to house-sit an apartment for her well-to-do Moscow relatives (a famous professor's family) while they are away on a trip. Lyudmila (Irina Muravyova), a flirty go-getter looking for a well-to-do husband while working at a bakery, convinces her to throw a dinner party at the apartment, and pretend that they are the daughters of Katerina's professor uncle, as a ploy to meet successful Muscovite men. At the party, Lyudmila meets Sergei, a famous hockey player, who falls in love with her and marries her even after discovering the truth about her origin. Katerina meets Rudolf (Yuri Vasilyev), a smooth talker who works as a cameraman for a television channel. He charms Katerina and then forces himself onto her.

Upon discovering that Katerina is not the daughter of a professor, Rudolf refuses to marry her and believes that she is going to abort the fetus. Rudolf's mother stops by Katerina and Lyudmila's room in workers' dormitory to tell Katerina to stop bothering her son and offers her money, which Katerina refuses.
