The year is 1837, and the war in the Caucasus is still raging. A young officer by the name of Grigory Pechorin is exiled to a remote army base as punishment for fighting a duel. Pechorin is the archetypal Byronic hero, “mad, bad and dangerous to know”, and embodies all the vices of a disillusioned generation. Here, in the wilds of the Caucasus, his arrival triggers a series of dramatic events, including a battle with smugglers, the abduction of a beautiful Chechen princess and yet another duel.
