Ostap and Solomiia are in love with each other, but they are destined to live in difficult years when the "free spirit of the people still smouldered under the ashes of slavery". The evil lord gives Solomiya in marriage to someone he does not love, and sends Ostap to the recruits. Ostap decides to escape, and Solomiya, disguised as a young man, also follows him. On the way, they meet other disadvantaged people who are looking for freedom, come under fire, and risk their lives. The tragic and romantic story of pure love and the struggle for freedom remains one of the most prominent stories in the school curriculum today.
