The Perm Region in the fate of Osip Mandelstam is a separate tragic page. In 1933, the poet wrote a poem "We live without feeling the country under us..." and on June 3, 1934, he was deported to Cherdyn, a small Ural town. The exile lasted two weeks, then there was Voronezh, but Cherdyn left her deep mark in Mandelstam's poetry. The film is a psychological reconstruction of Mandelstam's exile, "administratively exiled" under the number "1044".
