Overview
Erkki Collin is a hunted man. The Czar’s soldiers have been close on the heels of the leader of the rebellious Finns, who have been fighting the Russian occupiers since the end of the 18th Century. His flight leads him to the chambers of the dancer Marina Feodorowna, in whose house a party is taking place at that very moment. Marina discovers the intruder, hides him from his pursuers and soon falls in love with him. But hiding Erkki forever is not an option; so she presents him as her music teacher. The swindle fails and Prince Governor Abarow, who’s long had a thing for Marina, discovers the real identity of the man, but doesn’t have him arrested.

00:31:45 I'm delighted by your progress.
00:34:37 To what shall we drink?
00:39:13 Put it there.
00:42:13 But Mr. Collin, you don't pay attention.
00:44:47 she could have turned me in to the Russians at any time.
00:49:52 No, that's impossible.
00:52:06 Is that enough to show that Collin isn't a traitor?
00:55:08 Oh, a surprise!
00:57:41 I always have the feeling that you hide something from me.
01:06:27 Why does he come every day now?
01:09:13 Yes.
01:14:21 You, governor, revile and defile what is holy to us!
01:16:46 I ask the speaker to surrender himself voluntarily.
01:20:13 Yes, I'd like to see it.
01:22:53 Where to? To Siberia?
