Biography of the most famous Russian chansonnier of the twentieth century. The story of the artist who left Russia in 1919 and returned to the USSR in 1943, in the midst of World War II. Vertinsky lived, sang and was popular in Constantinople, Paris, Berlin, New York, Los Angeles, Harbin, Shanghai and Moscow. He was loved by beautiful women, he was applauded by royalty and thieves. He was a bohemian man, light and cheerful. However, this picture is primarily about his kindness. About the ability not to judge, but to regret, to sympathize with anyone. And for this, fate gifted him with great success and late family happiness. This is a story about how a songbird, an artist, a frivolous creature can live a life that causes both envy and respect.
