The Kuznetsovs have been married for seventeen years. Mariya is a teacher of literature at a secondary school, Sergey is an engineer at a research institute. The Kuznetsovs are experiencing a "mid-life crisis". Sergey and Mariya understand that they have long been living not as spouses, but as neighbors. Their daughter Yuliya, a student at a sewing college, is already sixteen and has long been living in her own interests, and her twelve-year-old son Aleksander is growing up, who is increasingly absent from home.—Tango Papa
