Arina Shulga

An ordinary school day turns into a fantastic adventure for Petya, Marusya, and Vasya when their idle time becomes the source of power for three old wizards. In pursuit of youth, the villains steal the students' time with a magical gadget, but in their haste, they themselves turn into children, and the children into helpless old men. To set things right, they must not only win the magical battle but also lift the spell before sunset, and most importantly, understand the value of every wasted minute.

1980s, USSR. Seven-year-old Olya, whom everyone calls Oliva, grew up in the village. By her side is always her faithful friend, the shepherd Rex. Olive is sure that she understands animals and easily finds a common language with them, be it a dog or a goat. In addition, Olive is a very erudite girl with a precocious adult view of the world, because she accidentally read her grandmother's entire library. Her best friend Igor is a moderately quick—witted, but very economical and wholeheartedly in love with Olive, a boy who is ready to support any of her adventures.
