And the children find themselves in an almost hopeless situation.

Three guys are sitting in a café and pondering how to approach three cute girls at the next table.

The most ordinary sixth‑grader, Vasily Koshkin, always stood out for his academic achievements and exemplary behavior. He was no different from his classmates: in the evenings he spent time playing computer games, avoided conflicts with older students, and secretly had a crush on his desk mate.

The famous singer Katrin is offered the opportunity to perform at a charity concert, which is the cherished dream of the mentally ill young man Misha.

This seemingly harmless game turns deadly when Katrin becomes a real hostage.
