Well-to-do and rich friends are faced with an entertainment problem. There is nothing for them to be happy about. The resulting crisis is obvious to all, so the friends agree on the following game: every Wednesday, one player gives the other a task which is to be carried out by any means. The task can be rather strange, absurd, cruel, or impracticable. The next week, the two players trade places. The only restriction is that the task should not be life-threatening or result in committing a crime. The outer world as well as the friends' inner lives change as the weeks go by. Instead of looking for high-level, magnificent entertainment, the friends develop a taste for fantastic attractions – and ulti­mately rediscover joy in life.

Imagine that several cameras have moved from the outskirts to the center, capturing the most interesting and informative moments of city life in different parts of the city along the way. The characters of the film are its viewers: natives of Kyiv, provincials who have come to seek their fortune, capitalist tourists — in short, those who make life in the city so vibrant. Every day we find ourselves in a variety of situations and solve a multitude of issues, from renting an apartment in the center to finding a notary in Novobelychi — urban trends, tastes, prices, priorities, routes, the labor and real estate markets, the past, present, and future.
