Descripción
In a rural Russian setting, a peasant named Pahom believes that the key to happiness lies in acquiring more land. Consumed by the desire for wealth and power, he learns about a group of nomadic Bashkirs who offer an unusual proposal: for a fixed sum, he can claim as much land as he can walk around in a single day. The catch, however, lies in the condition that he must return to the starting point by sunset, or he will lose everything.
As Pahom embarks on this ambitious venture, his greed and ambition propel him into a frenzied race against time. The story unfolds as the consequences of his decisions become glaringly apparent, illuminating the dangers of insatiable desire and the true nature of human need. Through Pahom's journey, readers are invited to reflect on the balance between ambition and contentment.
