An adaptation of Eliza Orzeszkowa’s novel. Set in 1886 in Lithuania, the story centers on the conflict between the Bohatyrowicz family and the Korczyn estate. Against a backdrop of social and familial tensions unfolds the love story of Justyna Orzelska (Iwona Katarzyna Pawlak), niece of Benedykt Korczyński, and Jan Bohatyrowicz (Adam Marjański). Will their love prove strong enough to overcome the deep mental divide separating the world of the Bohatyrowiczs from that of the Korczyńskis?
Zygmunt Korczyński wants to make Justyna his mistress. Meanwhile, she falls in love—mutually—with Jan Bohatyrowicz. Her first visit to the Bohatyrowicz settlement becomes a major event: some welcome her warmly, others voice grievances against the manor. Anzelm and Jan Bohatyrowicz take Justyna to the graves of their legendary ancestors, Jan and Cecylia, as well as the resting place of Benedykt Korczyński’s brother and Anzelm’s brother, both fallen in the uprising. Meanwhile, Teofil Różyc asks his cousin Kirłowa to discreetly find out if Justyna would consider marrying him.
