Based on one of Chekhov's loveliest stories, the film begins as Moscow banker Dmitry Gurov spies on a beautiful young woman, Anna, while walking her dog. Set in the early 1900s in Yalta, the film focuses on the holiday affairs of these unhappily married people. After their summer holidays, both return home, but then a chance arises for Dmitry to make a trip to Anna's hometown.
