The story

Part I In Tsarist Russia in the early 1900s, Victor Komarovsky, an unctuous, wealthy businessman with political connections, is involved in a casual affair with Lara's bourgeois dressmaker mother Amalia, who encourages her teenage daughter to accept his invitation to dinner in an attempt to retain his financial support of her household. Initially, Lara is repelled by the thought, but she finally accepts because of the pressure he exerts on her. This eventually leads her to have a forceful relationship with him.
