Can love exist beyond a single moment?

White Nights is Fyodor Dostoevsky's beautifully melancholic novella about love and longing in the solitude of the night. The story follows a lonely dreamer, an outsider who yearns for companionship but remains trapped in his imagination. One evening, he encounters Nastenka—a young woman who is also lost in her own sorrow. Over the course of four nights, their bond deepens as they share their dreams, fears, and fragile hopes.

As the dreamer falls in love, he believes he has finally found the connection he has always longed for. But love is often ephemeral, and fate may have other plans. With a delicate balance of romance, sorrow, and philosophical insight, White Nights explores the fleeting nature of happiness and the deep ache of human isolation.

More than just a love story, White Nights is a meditation on the nature of human connection, the power of dreams, and the bittersweet reality of love that comes too late.

Can a moment of love last forever, or is it destined to fade with the dawn?
