Mikhail Kalatozov's critically-acclaimed, romantic tragedy starring Tatyana Samojlova. Young Moscow couple, Veronika (Samojlova) and Boris (Aleksey Batalov), are deeply in love but are separated when Boris volunteers to join the army during World War II. While she waits for her lover to return, Veronika is raped by Boris's cousin, Fyodor (Vasily Merkuryev), and later - having become resigned to the fact that Boris will never return - agrees to marry him.
