The film is based on the story of the Oval Sarcophagus with Dionysian scenes from the antique collection of the Pushkin Museum im. A.S. Pushkin. At various times, the owners of the sarcophagus were the Roman Emperor Septimius Severus, the Italian Cardinal Marco Sittico Altemps, and finally, the Minister of Public Education of Russia, Count Sergei Uvarov, who purchased the sarcophagus for his "museum" in the Porechye estate near Moscow. The history of the sarcophagus is an occasion to reflect on the connection between epochs and cultures, the vicissitudes of fate, the mystery of life and death.

This film is based on the unusual fate of an unusual picture, a double portrait of two prominent historical figures. On one side of it, in 1896, the last Russian Emperor Nicholas II was depicted in a palace interior. And on the other hand, almost three decades later, Vladimir Ilyich Lenin in full growth against the backdrop of the Peter and Paul Fortress. For a long time, this canvas in a gilded frame was kept in the assembly hall of the St. Petersburg secondary school on the Fontanka, with the Leninist side facing the viewer. The side of Nicholas II, on the contrary, was hidden under a layer of paint for 90 years. Only in 2013, the year of the centenary of the Romanov dynasty, the restorers almost accidentally discovered the image hidden from the audience. The incredible combination of two warring rulers on both sides of the same canvas turned out to be a real sensation. It is no coincidence that the portrait became the central exhibit at the exhibition dedicated to the Russian Revolution in the Hermitage in 2017. However, the plot of the film is not limited to one sensation. The viewer will have to make a lot of amazing discoveries both in the history of writing an unusual picture, and in the fate of two almost forgotten Russian artists.
