A filmed stage performance by the Bolshoi Drama Theatre. Three miniatures based on short stories by A.P. Chekhov: The Darling Dog, The Wrongdoer, The Groom and the Papa, exploring the absurdity of existence. In each miniature, one of the characters inevitably insists on something that is completely unnecessary for the other.
