Five unusual short stories. Two heroes are fighting for the heart of a mysterious beauty in the tragicomedy Olesya. In the parable "Milk" in the high-rise kitchen a real cow appears. The heroine of the comedy without the “Not Fit” dialogues is torn between the desire to lose weight by the alumni meeting and the modern food cult. The eccentric Rita Hurricane rushes into the life of the security guard of the Leo shopping center and changes it forever. And the hero of the story "Carpe diem" solves an important question - to lie or not to lie, when everyone around is lying.

Directed by Pavel Emelin · Written by Alla Guseva

Exactly five stories from different parts of Russia - from Arkhangelsk to Sakhalin. The modern romantic comedy "Firefly" was filmed in Severodvinsk. The musical film “Not for the River” from Arkhangelsk is dedicated to the ability to establish strong, like sea knots, relationships. The Kazan traffic police officer on duty on the highway, opening the trunk of a stopped car, changes his life forever (“Lost Path”). The heroine of the novel "Tamara" from Krasnoyarsk, showing a hard character in her work, will be helpless in her personal life. The Sakhalin short film "In the arms of the sea" in a poetic manner tells the story of true friendship and farewell.
