Wedding on the Volga (1929)

In gratitude for saving his life, Piotr offers the brutish Zhuck the hand of his daughter, Olga, who loves Alexis, a sailor home on leave. However, Borrah, an old chemist, tosses a tear bomb during the wedding ceremony, and Alexis escapes with Olga to a shack belonging to Darya, Zhuck's rejected sweetheart. Accusing Piotr of a double-cross, Zhuck hears the other fishermen reveal his hesitation during his rescue of Piotr, so that the latter might sign a will beneficial to him. Amid a happy celebration Alexis and Olga marry with Piotr's blessing.
