It's early summer. A young couple with their eight-year-old son arrive at their dacha. Someone has broken Mom's favorite blue cup. The cup is broken, but no one broke it. So what happened? This mystery gives rise to a vague premonition of something irreparable. Father and son, offended by the unfair accusations, decide to leave home—for good.
"This is a box filled with childhood secrets. It's full of treasures: a quarry stone, a blade of grass for whistling, and stained glass for looking at the sun. It's an encyclopedia, 'I'm Learning About the World.' A collection of paintings about a beloved father and a happy childhood, compressed into memory on one beautiful sunny day. This is a declaration of love to childhood, a time that no longer exists."
