On the detention of fascist saboteurs and border violators by the collective farmers of Soviet Byelorussia. The main heroine, the actual "daughter of the Motherland", is the chairman of the kolkhoz, and has detained eight trespassers. But the main enemy may be lurking from within the borders.

Leonid Pleshcheyev returned from the war blind. Against his will, he became a dependent. He drowns his grief in unrestrained drunkenness, thereby tormenting his wife Mariya and his teenage son Lyonka. Mariya finally decides to take her son and leave for Altai, but the boy runs away and returns to his father. So, together, they eke out a half-miserable existence until Grigoriy Shalagin, Pleshcheyev's longtime friend, returns from the army. It is he who awakens in Leonid the extinct self-esteem and pride of a soldier. Pity aside, he helps him get back to work.

A performance by the Leningrad Bolshoi Drama Theater named after M. Gorky.
