The story of a fateful duel of a great poet is a drama of love, honour, and irreconcilable conflict

Pyatigorsk, at the foot of Mount Mashuk. Morning of July 15, 1841. Just two days ago, Lermontov and Martynov were friends, now they are sworn enemies. Only a few hours remain before their duel, yet none of the poet’s friends, relatives, or acquaintances suspect the tragic outcome awaiting them.
