Scarlet Sails (‘Алые паруса’) is based on Alexander Grin's adventure novel.
The story is a romantic fantasy and is described as a "fairy tale", though it contains no overtly supernatural elements. The setting is a small fishing village. The former seaman Longren raises his daughter Assol alone after losing his beloved wife, making a meager living by selling the toy boats he carves from wood. As a child, Assol encounters an old man who claims to be a wizard and promises the girl that one day a prince will come on a ship with scarlet sails to carry her away. The villagers scoff but Assol believes her dream will come true one day.
