The plague of civil war reached a provincial town, where several noble families were stuck waiting for a train. The joy of hope was replaced by despair, fear of the future. No one knew how much was allotted to him in this life. Emotions boil, passions run high, hearts break, will is destroyed, pride is trampled. Each of the heroes survives in his own way, but all fell low. Ah, if you only knew when the long-awaited train would arrive in Moscow ...

I haven't found the version with any subtitles
Quite weak Russian movie which was made in time of huge crisis of post-Soviet cinema. The plot is about several noble families and several officers which got stuck in railway station expecting the train which could help them to leave Russia during civil war. They have to wait for a long time and to start a new life, changing their jobs and habits. There are some dramas, scandals and so on.
One wife has a lover who probably pays her for sex. She has a little baby and a husband who somehow doesn't understand what happens. She doesn't love her husband. In one scene an officer made stupid joke about her baby telling that he would eat her baby, she was upset, asked her husband to interfere, but he does nothing saying that it's a compliment.
In 36:40 she wakes up because some old lady (probably maid) tells that Protopopov had arrived (that lover of hers). The wife in nightgown runs to him immediately, but she is stopped by other guy who asks about his wife. She laughs, and it looks like his wife does the same as she does, prostitution or something.
in 38:20 the husband decides to ask his maid who is Protopopov and why he often visits Natalya (his wife). The maid doesn't reveal anything, it seems she laughs at husband. He understands what is happening and wants to find his wife, but his sister stops and calms him down.
In 52:31 we see how Natalya makes love with that guy Protopopov. She kisses his body. In next scene he screws her. Her husband sits in some dark corner and watches. He interrupts them but only because some glass falls on the floor. So probably he would let her lover end his business. Her lover looks embarrassed, but Natalya calmly says "Don't worry, mister Protopopov, and don't hurry to dress up. I will deal with my husband myself", she doesn't try even to cover her body. The lover says "Good luck, thank you, good bye" and leaves. They are all polite and noble people. The husband tries to stop him probably for to call him for a duel, but his naked wife says "With best wishes, mister Protopopov, don't forget about us".
Her husband calls her whore and prostitute, it doesn't confuse her. She smiles and says that he failed everything, he destroyed their lives. She gets furious and shout "Don't interfere into my business!"
In the end she asks her husband to forgive her, and he looks totally ruined but i seems he is ready to do that because they have common baby.
Actually movie is pretty bad, but that actress is hot.
