The story

In Czarist Russia, Ivan Markov (John Barrymore), a patriotic peasant youth, rises through the ranks after earning the admiration of a celebrated military leader, the General (George Fawcett), who commissions him a lieutenant. Ivan falls hopelessly in love with the General's daughter, Princess Tamara (Camilla Horn), but she is already engaged to a pompous officer, Captain Egorov (Ullrich Haupt), a snobbish member of her father's staff. At a grand ball, the princess spurns Ivan with cold disdain.
