Gold prospectors in a Yukon cabin, a murder over the claim, and then a spring flood that cuts off the survivors. The married couple left alive have to keep the killer tied up for weeks and decide whether to wait for a court or become one. They try him under a portrait of Queen Victoria. Alexandra Khokhlova plays the wife as someone who cannot sit still, and the cutting will not let her.

The same idea with three people. No crowds, and it is the most nervous film in the collection.
A Yukon cabin, gold, a killing, and a couple deciding whether to be a court. London by way of Kuleshov, built outside Moscow. Almost no extras. Watch the flood. The land here is a wall, and the Western turns out to be a Russian form too.
