"I love when life is around.." — this phrase can be called the main logline of the film. In our youth, we want everything to the maximum: to love, to be friends, to live... Such maximalism had a tragic impact on the main character and her entourage: her best and only friend died, for whose death she blamed herself all her life. The life story of the heroine is shown by alternating scenes from the recognizable Soviet past, when she was a girl, and her present, the events of which take place on the eve of her 60th birthday. This is the story of redemption and the choice of a life path, the story of several generations and destinies that continue to be closely intertwined years later.
