Karim lives with his son in a small dorm room. Their way of life is unsettled, and the world is manly stingy with compliments and emotions. Not everything in their relationship turns out as smoothly as we would like, and the affectionate hand of a woman is not enough in this uninhabited space. But after all, sorrows and problems are forgotten when the father's shoulder is always there, and the son's hand is always in his big palm.

In the mid-1920s, Salimsak, an ordinary Kazakh from the steppe, was disliked by his wife for degrading the family by playing the female role in a play against polygamy. He unintentionally uttered the word "Talaq" during an argument, and according to local religious tradition, if a husband says "Talaq" to his wife three times in a row, it means he is divorced. While Salimsak, who has never thought of leaving his wife, prays for a solution, his wife, under the influence of the popular slogan of "women's liberation", is thinking of divorce. ......... The collapse of Salimsak's small traditional family in the current of the times is a metaphor for the collapse of director Daniyah's family. The metaphor of the collapse epitomizes the core of the films of the director Daniyar Salamat, who has been writing in Kazakh since his debut and believes that cinema has a great significance in social education, and that the spirit of the nation cannot be restored without the progress of cinema.
