The ice cracked on the river. The father saved his son Sergei, but the daughter and her mother drowned. Years passed. In the monotonous atmosphere of the daily grayness, an exploration of two parallel paths. On the one hand, the banal relationship of a couple. He, a very busy businessman. She, the mother of Jenia, a difficult twenty-year-old girl. On the other hand, Sergei, the young man as overwhelmed by malaise and lovesickness as Jenia. Psychological trauma? Health problems? Between them, the telephone... Against the backdrop of this trauma, a film about emptiness, about existence without horizons and about the inability to love, treated in half-tones.
