Prince Myshkin returns to Russia after years abroad, arriving by train on a cold and misty morning.
Inside a third-class carriage, a conversation unfolds that introduces two very different worlds. Myshkin’s openness and quiet sincerity stand in contrast to Rogozhin’s intensity and restless energy, while a curious observer weaves himself into their exchange.
As the journey ends, Myshkin steps into St. Petersburg and makes his way toward the home of General Epanchin, where new relationships and deeper tensions begin to take shape.
This opening episode introduces a man who sees the world with unusual clarity, and a society that does not yet know how to receive him.
