Grief stricken by the death of his wife and child, Ivan rages against Fate's unkindness until a Visitation opens his eyes and his heart to the truth. The Lord promises Ivan to visit him again and the shoemaker humbly awaits his coming. Several objects of charity cross Ivan's path. He treats them gently and generously and upon the return of the Visitation, learns that they were God Himself. The fact that the story is one of the most popular products of the pen of the famous Russian philosopher is a guarantee to the quality of the film and added to this the acting of a capable company leaves nothing to be desired to make an attractive offering.
