Bless the Woman (Russian: Благословите женщину, romanized: Blagoslovite zhenshchinu) is a Russian film that was released in 2003. The film is based on the novel Hostess, by Irina Grekova.

Plot

The film begins in a small seaside village in the early 1930s. A young girl falls in love with an older visiting military officer named Larichev and goes with him to his place of service. Following always and everywhere for her beloved husband (Central Asia, the North, the Soviet-Finnish War, the beginning of the Great Patriotic War), the heroine fully sacrifices herself to him, obeying his orders without discussion. Captivity, suspicion and the ruin of his military career (dismissal from the army) break Larichev's strong character, bringing death from heart failure. The heroine's life without him is a new beginning.
