A story about the life of several girls who came from outskirts of Ukrainian provincial town Makeevka to Moscow.

A funny comedy about the unforgettable adventures of two young Moscow girls.

Katerina is smart and ambitious. She sees only in work. Once, Katina’s orphanage home comes to Katya’s home. “Is this your cat for sale?” The girl asks. “We don’t have any cats,” Katya wonders. In fact, Alina is cunning. She is sure that the business woman is her mother. Katerina, explains that they have not lived for a long time, but the orphan does not retreat. Katya undertakes to find her real parents, but eventually understands that she has led to the girl, and can no longer part with her. This piercing and bright story will be interesting for both adult audiences and teenagers.

This is a remarkably subtle film–a character study that focuses on Mitya’s attempts to cope with each new startling phase of discovery. At first he mourns for his dead wife, but then he discovers that he didn’t really know her.
