Tanya Vasilevskaya, a graduate of the Belarusian State Pedagogical University, gets assigned to a small school in the agro-town of Mezhrechye. The situation is aggravated by the fact that a very young teacher is put in charge of the 11th grade, whose former mentor unexpectedly retires. All the students in this class are complex and difficult children, but one of them, Sergey Yanchuk, requires special attention after the death of his mother. Tanya will have to overcome doubts, professional inexperience, skepticism and ridicule to become a good homeroom teacher.

The young director Kolya is obsessed with the dream of making an author's film, but instead he is forced to do uninteresting work in the archives of the film studio. The Belarusfilm Short Film Festival is a real chance for Kolya, especially when such a master as Yuri Stoyanov is on the jury.
