Plot
The second half of June 1941. A girl in a white dress hurries to the ship, drops her suitcase. The lieutenant border guard, who is also heading for the marina, helps her collect the lost things. The ticket office is closed and there are no tickets, but he gives her his ticket, belt, cap and things, buys a bunch of salted fish on the pier and passes onto the ship under the guise of a passenger. So they both end up on the boat and get to know each other: he is border guard Pavel Glazkov returning from vacation to an outpost on the western border, and she is a student at the medical school Lisa, returning to the hostel from an aunt living in this town. He gives her a place in the cabin for the night and spends the night on the deck, and early in the morning, when Lisa goes on deck, the first kiss occurs and he immediately offers her to become his wife.

On the same day, when they arrive in the city on the Volga, where Liza studies, they sign (at that time, the marriage and divorce took place immediately after submitting the application, there was no probationary period). Lisa brings Paul to the hostel and introduces her friends. They spend three days together and the mutual feeling is becoming stronger. Pavel is going to leave on June 21, as he should be at the outpost in the morning of June 22, but there are no tickets to Moscow this evening, and the commandant at the station invites him to take a direct train to Lviv in the morning. Paul does not say the day before Lisa that he will have to leave in the morning, and not in the evening, so as not to upset her, and in the morning, while he sleeps, she goes to the market, not knowing that only a couple of hours are left before the train. Lisa's friend finds her in the market when the train is already leaving. Pavel is escorted by two other friends of Lisa. On the night of June 22, Lisa wrote a letter to him in tears, not knowing that the war had already begun. The final scene of the film is a sleeping peaceful city at dawn.
