Tenth-grader Nikolai Olkhovnikov from the provincial town of Olkhovka wrote a heartfelt protest to the newspaper, accusing the "town fathers" of unjust actions. The boy became an outcast in town, but no matter how much his few friends and old teacher tried to warn him, he did not retract his words. And some time later, a letter arrived in the same newspaper with a report of Nikolai's death during a fight with rowdy boys who decided to teach the young truth-seeker a lesson.

The film tells about the fate of the brilliant Russian poet Alexei Koltsov, who so romantically sang the nature of Rus', the incomparable beauty of Russian women, the incomprehensible mystery of the Russian soul.

The television play centers around the character of the young, energetic collective farm chairman, Semyon Bobrov, who is passionate about the idea of creating a new village project. Bobrov involves architecture graduates in his plans to reconstruct the village, and among them, he meets Klara Veresova — his future wife.
