Death in a pince-nez, or Our Chekhov

AT Moscow from abroad comes the famous theater director Daniel Sorin, invited to restore his once successful performance "The Cherry Orchard". Producer doubts - "Who today needs a classic Chekhov?", but agrees.

Everything goes well - the feeling flares up to the familiar actress, each beauty gets his main role from him.

But work on the performance is accompanied by oddities: then Sorin discovers tombstone himself, where the date of death coincides with the date of the alleged premiere, then he sees near the theater hearse, then he gets the prospectuses of the office ritual services.

What is it? Are the terrible signs of imminent danger, visions inspired by the artist's inflamed imagination? Or is it true that an attempt is being made? And if so - then what is its purpose?
