What happens

After Death (Russian: По́сле сме́рти, Pósle smérti, "After death") is a 1915 Russian film directed by Yevgeni Bauer. It is based on the novella Klara Milich by Ivan Turgenev. After the October Revolution, the Cinema Committee had the film's title changed to Klara Milich to associate it more with Turgenev, as they did not approve of Bauer's significant departures from the original text.
