Plot

1922. Commissar Alexey Mikhailovich Glazkov, who received a mandate from the Soviet government to manage the affairs of Chukotka, and the very young clerk Alyosha Bychkov accompanying him in a dog sled driven by a musher, travel from Ascension Bay to the village Uigunan in Chukotka. On the way, Glazkov dies of typhus, and Alyosha and the musher bury him, covered with snow. However, despite the death of Glazkov, the musher refuses to turn the dogs in the opposite direction and delivers Alyosha to Uygunan, where he is met by the former tsarist customs officer Khramov. Having sent Alyosha to rest after his arrival, the cunning Khramov, having secretly examined the things brought by Alyosha, finds Glazkov's mandate among them and believes that Alyosha is Glazkov.[4]
