Saint Petersburg, mid-19th century: a lazy young man Ilya Oblomov shares an apartment with his servant Zakhar. Most of the day he sleeps dreaming about his childhood at his parents' estate. He meets his childhood friend, Stoltz, whenever he is in town. One day, on such a meeting, Stoltz introduces Ilya to Olga, a lovely and cultured woman who radically changes Oblomov's way of life.
