Moscow, 1992. Katia is a 34-year-old typist. She leads a somewhat boring life with her husband, Mitia, who is rather insignifiant and still very much under the influence of his mother, the famous writer Irina Dmitrievna.

At the datcha, Katia’s life is suddenly transformed by her meeting with Sergueï, who becomes her lover. This passion will completely transform her personality…
