The young Cossack Roman Ulybin lives with his family in a village in the Siberian region of Daurien . The leader of the idyll far from Moscow is the ataman Kargin. Kargin makes sure that the traditional customs are followed.

Roman is in love with the beautiful Dasha and asks his father to send a matchmaker to Dasha's parents and arrange a marriage before any of his rivals can do so. However, Roman's father is not fast enough, and so Dasha is married to the son of a crook. The wedding is a big event and the entire village is celebrating with it.

Then the First World War breaks out. Roman's brother is drafted into the army. Some time later, Roman follows his brother and gets caught up in the outbreak of the Russian Revolution , from which Roman's home village is not spared. Roman has to decide which side he is on and realizes that his village is not the whole world.

Reviews

For the lexicon of international film , Dauria is a "broad-based, adventurous film whose atmospheric contemplation of the Cossack families in the first part clearly has to give way to the superficial action in the second half."
