The investigator's story in two interrogations with an unpredictable end.

In 1957 French student Pierre Durand comes to Moscow to do an internship at Moscow State University. Here he meets ballerina Kira Galkina and photographer Valera Uspenskiy. With them he discovers the cultural side of Moscow — not just the traditional one, but the underground one as well. During his year in Russia’s capital Pierre lives an entirely different life than what he’s used to. But the internship and the experience of the Soviet people’s way of life are not the only things Pierre is after. He’s searching for his father, White officer Tatishchev, who was arrested in the 1930s.

Kostya and Olya are university teachers. On vacation at a sanatorium, Olya found a more respectable partner for herself - Sergey. He is a wealthy man obsessed with a healthy lifestyle and active sports. Upon arrival, Olya leaves a note for her husband and leaves the house, blocking all contact with Kostya. Sergey has a daughter, Sonya. Kostya finds nothing better than to try to start an affair with her in order to gain access to Sergey and his new lover. Sonya does not find Kostya very attractive. However, the opportunity to irritate her father at a dinner with her potential stepmother seems tempting. After all, her father recently kicked out her boyfriend Maks for "not being serious."
