Overview
A governor of Tsarist Russia throws a punch at striking workers. Many die as the governor looks on dutifully. From that moment on, he feels he has sinned against the people and expects to be killed too. Despite all the precautions taken by the chief of police, the governor cannot escape his fate, an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth - the principle of talio is fulfilled.
