For 18-year-old Roman, the final high school exam means first fear and then bitter defeat, which makes him feel excluded from society. He stays at home, isolated from his surroundings, and increasingly retreats into a world of virtual communication, where words like truth and facts are just vague concepts. Unnoticed by his parents, Roman undergoes a fundamental psychological transformation into a state from which there may be no return.

Remember when there was this amazing comedy titled "National Lampoon's Vacation"? To this day, it is a true classic of the genre and certainly put a new spin on precisely what KINDS of insanity could occur when taking the fam on the road.

Suddenly, the luster was gone and disappointment set in.
