Synopsis by Dan Pavlides
A wedding celebration of a peasant to a beautiful young girl is interrupted by two callous commissars. The top councilman is powerless to stop the duo who have been sent as representatives of Stalin. The two quietly bide their time as they watch the guests who are scheduled to be arrested for their political leanings. When the new bride cares for the injured councilman, he rapes her while the irate villagers hear the attack outside. Her husband rejects her when she is returned to him by the angry mob. The rapist is led off to jail and the bride is gunned down trying to escape.
