Plot
[edit]A new geography teacher, Maria Vladimirovna Nesterova, arrives in a rural village with her young daughter, Katya. They are given a ride by Fyodor Semyonovich Barinev, a local collective farm driver. Struck by Maria's beauty, Fyodor is immediately drawn to her and begins to court her, but Maria remains distant. At the same time, a young and frivolous villager named Vanya Timonin, nicknamed "Kochetok," also tries to win Maria’s affection. However, Fyodor quickly puts an end to Vanya's advances, making it clear that he won’t tolerate competition for Maria’s attention.
As time passes, Fyodor’s love for Maria deepens, and living near her without reciprocation becomes increasingly painful. He considers leaving the village to work in a distant collective farm to escape his unrequited feelings but soon returns, determined to marry her. His wise father persuades him to be patient. Meanwhile, Maria’s former partner, Vladimir Sergeyevich Korneev, unexpectedly arrives in the village. Unaware of Katya’s existence, he seeks to meet his daughter. Vanya, after realizing who Vladimir is, rushes back to warn Maria of her ex’s arrival. Alarmed, Maria turns to Fyodor for help, and he intercepts Vladimir on the road. Their tense conversation escalates into a fight, interrupted only by Maria’s arrival with her loyal dog, Mergen. Vladimir leaves, and at last, Maria and Fyodor find themselves alone, with a new understanding between them.
