Realizing that she has destroyed someone else’s future, Zhenya leaves medicine and begins a quiet life in the provinces with her son.

Katya is seriously ill, and Zhenya, concealing her identity, decides to help her recover. But the closer the woman becomes to Katya and Pavel, the more dangerous her secret becomes.
