Plot
A provincial girl, Rita, is robbed of her suitcase at the station. She is all alone in a foreign bustling city with no papers, no money, and no address for her friend.
Rita is assisted by Ernest, a homeless boy, who is also not needed by an indifferent society.

Critical response
As film critic Vasily Koretsky (Time Out Russia): "It is rather embarrassing to watch the development of the platonic romance of a boy and a girl; the acting here resembles an overly intimate allusion to daughter-mothers".[3]
According to Valery Kichin, "Valery Akhadov made a powerful picture of a cold world where there is no social protection, and everyone survives alone, a world that does not need people, is not interested in them. This is our new Russia".[4]
Sergey Kudryavtsev notes: "Perhaps, both the motif of robbery with stabbing, and the departure to a happy land, where Goethe's heroes rushed with inescapable longing, seem like overkill in this urban story" and rates the film 6 out of 10.[5]
