Her Portrait

Story

Synopsis

Danka was an unwanted child. From an early age she had to cope on her own. Despite harsh conditions and difficult experiences, she has not lost her dignity, has remained true to her ideals, and has a sense of integrity and honesty. When the opportunity to conditionally shorten her sentence in a correctional institution by getting married hits her, she rejects the tempting offer. She doesn't want to hurt the man she doesn't love, who has shown her a lot of heart. Danka's friend has taken advantage of her conditional release, without hiding what her motives are, by the way.
