In the dead of night, three sorcerers meet on the outskirts of Moscow. They have been forced to work against each other for a long time. The conflict, which involves the best witchcraft forces of the capital, is a banal love triangle. Alexey is an enviable man and earns well, his wife Masha, a complex and insecure young woman, has long lived only in the interests of her family, and her lover Irina will stop at nothing in order to take her place.

Au début des années 50, à Kandalaksha, pendant la construction d'une centrale électrique sur la rivière Niva, Petia, un jeune homme de grande taille, s’imagine être, soit un policier en service, soit un soldat de l’Armée soviétique... et est suivi par un psychiatre. Il prend son « devoir » très au sérieux et les voisins, qui ont pitié de lui, entrent dans son jeu.

A talented doctor, a rich slacker, a good mother and other people whose life looks perfect only from the outside are in an eternal search for an answer to the question of what happiness is.
