Valentin is an eccentric projectionist. For 44 years, he’s been working in one of the oldest cinemas in Kyiv. Every day at work seems like another adventure. It all comes to an abrupt end when a fire breaks out, and he is forced to retire. The man is aware that he does not have much time left and struggles to find a new meaning of his life in a rapidly changing country. The director sees his heroes in this film as dinosaurs living in today’s world.

A young man lies down on the grass in the public garden. That becomes a reason to begin conversations by other people.
