Plot synopsis
Oleg Tebazov lives with his wife and two children in an 11-square-meter room in a shelter where he is housed by the state because he was raised in a children's home. He owes a lot of money to the bank "Russkiy Standart". If he found a job, the bank would immediately call on him, so Oleg does not work and does not pay his debts. His wife Tania works as a cleaner and earns 4,000 rubles a month. Their two-year-old son Dima is diabetic and should be on a special diet, but Tania does not have enough money for that. The neighbors think she is a bad mother and that Dima would be better off in a children's home. He could follow the same path as his father...
