The story about the choice that has to be made between loved ones and morality when there is no other option for development. The two main characters of the film are forced to make this choice in their respective relationships: Sasha with her own husband and Anya with her son. The drama of the situation is exacerbated when they are involved in crime.

The film is set in the 1960s, in a remote provincial town. Ivan is a model worker, a lathe operator at a factory, raising his son Alexei alone. Problems arise in the family: Ivan's beloved wife has a huge debt and faces prison. And Alexei is humiliated by hooligans in front of his beloved girlfriend. His father finds an unusual way out of these situations: he makes a gun himself (so that Leshka can take revenge on the hooligans), then goes with his son to rob a cafe to help Masha cover the shortfall. Gradually, Alexei gets a taste for it; he likes having power over people and commits his first murder. Suddenly, Ivan realizes that he has raised a killer with his own hands.

Marta, an autistic girl, lives with her mother. She decides to meet a man she has feelings for, surprising Maxim, who didn’t expect this. He finds himself drawn to her, and they navigate the situation together.
