A successful doctor is visited by her old friend, a famous writer. They used to be close, but their friendship ended when they both fell in love with the same man. At first, their reunion seems to be going well, but as they talk, their old grudges and resentments resurface and threaten to ruin their renewed connection.

Tanya Vasilevskaya, a graduate of the Belarusian State Pedagogical University, gets assigned to a small school in the agro-town of Mezhrechye. The situation is aggravated by the fact that a very young teacher is put in charge of the 11th grade, whose former mentor unexpectedly retires. All the students in this class are complex and difficult children, but one of them, Sergey Yanchuk, requires special attention after the death of his mother. Tanya will have to overcome doubts, professional inexperience, skepticism and ridicule to become a good homeroom teacher.
