Chemistry teacher Andrei Petrovich Starikov, nicknamed "Charlie Chaplin", lives with his wife and mother in an old house, which, like an ark, is home to a motley international crowd: Ukrainians, Russians, Jews, Tatars, and Armenians. But the arrival of the Germans drastically changes their lives. To save his loved ones, Charlie is forced to serve as a translator at the Nazi headquarters.
