Olga Voznesenskaya is a silent screen star whose pictures are so popular that underground revolutionaries risk capture to see them. She's in southern Russia filming a tear-jerker in the waning days of the [[RedOctober Russian Civil War]], as the Bolsheviks are closing in on the Crimea. Although married, she spends time every day with Victor Pototsky, the film's cameraman. Gradually, it comes to light that Victor uses his job as a cover for filming White atrocities and Red heroism: he's a Bolshevik. He asks her for help, and she discovers meaning in her otherwise flighty and self-centered life. Love blooms. Will the Red forces arrive in time to save them from a suspicious White military leader? Will she find courage?

* VillainWithGoodPublicity: Pototsky and the Bolsheviks believe this of the Whites. And it was true, in a sense at least. The atrocities of the Bolsheviks were quite well known in the West, the murder of the tsar and his family being most infamous. Meanwhile the White Russian forces were just as bad (they loved to kill Jews), but this was not as well reported.
* WhileRomeBurns: The members of Olga's troupe are quite aware that things are going badly for the White Russian forces and that their days numbered, but they continue making their sappy melodrama nonetheless. A little historical context is useful here--in RealLife, the Crimea was the last holdout for the White Russians, who controlled it for a while after the White forces under Denikin and Kolchak elsewhere had been crushed.
