18-year old Kristina meets postgraduate student, Ivan, at a friend's party where after too many drinks, he spends the night at her house. In the morning, Ivan meets Kristina's mother, Nadezhda to whom he is immediately attracted and, although he takes Kristina out a couple more times, it is clear that Ivan's feelings lie with her mother, and the attraction is mutual. Gradually, the relationship between 23-year old Ivan and 40-year old Nadezhda begins to develop. However, it is met with great opposition from Ivan's mother, who does not approve of the age difference and Kristina, who is extremely hurt. When Ivan announces that he is going to move in with Nadezhda, Kristina gives her mother an ultimatum - she must choose between her daughter and her lover. Reluctantly, Nadezhda ends her relationship with Ivan, however, the decision breaks her heart and sinks her into a deep depression. Seeing her mother suffer makes Kristina feel guilty and, after much soul-searching, she forgives her mother and gives the couple her blessing. (Star Media)
