1945. Of all the men from the village of Maslyanino who went to the front, only five of Maria's sons return. Why did fate choose them and how did the mother survive the war years, to whom the women of the village, at the instigation of the village shop saleswoman Vera, had attributed black magic since before the war, calling her a witch?

Katya Orlova and Lech Danilin met in a provincial Russian city and got married on the same day. He is an ordinary guy, and she is a refined "billionaire's daughter" who grew up in London and lost her parents in a car accident. Their relationship is a struggle of opposites.

After another scandal, the son of a Soviet functionary is sent to the organizing committee of the Olympic Games-80 for correction, where he begins to work as a simple volunteer. His boss is the daughter of a high—ranking military man, and she is not going to make any concessions to a spoiled guy from a rich family. Once on the other side of the world event poster, he will meet different people who will change his outlook on life — athletes, coaches and other volunteers. Through their eyes, he will see all the drama around the preparation for the big competition, which was on the verge of collapse.
