Plot synopsis
Two young teachers in search of happiness decide to radically change their lives. One runs from a working village to a metropolis, the other, on the contrary, seeks solitude and leaves the noisy capital for the village. The girls have only three months of summer vacation to make a decision and take a decisive step. Will they go against their family, friends, their fears? Will they become happy?
