Mark, a 12-year-old sloppy teenager from a rich family, is sent by his mother from Moscow to Kamchatka to live with his harsh father, Kai, after another scandalous offense.

And mom and dad have to change their views on raising a child and, most importantly, look at each other with completely new eyes.
