A docu-film on the history and meaning of the painting Madonna Sistina by Raffaello, painted in 1513. The meaning of Raffaello's masterpiece is told through the eyes of Russian author Vasilij Grossman, who dedicated a short but significant story to the painting in which he reviewed the tragic history of twentieth-century totalitarianisms.
