Dubrowsky's son Vladimir, called Wladja, does not want to submit to this fraud and fights for his rights with all means, especially since he accuses Petrovich of being complicit in his father's death.

Eventually he puts himself at the head of other betrayed, especially peasants, who have also been harmed, and the generally disenfranchised.

The young Dubrowsky has to realize how much the people are starving and suffering under the bondage of serfdom and sets himself up as the avenger of the dispossessed by taking it from the rich and giving it to the poor, in the tradition of Robin Hood.

In the fight against Petrovich's reign of terror of money, Vladja's love intervenes one day, because the beautiful Masha is, of all people, the daughter of his worst adversary, the landowner Kirila.
