Butchkin (Oleg Basilashvili) is over 50 years old and is a highly respected translator. He has a successful career and a happy marriage working in the research institute, and is the envy of everyone. But all this perfection was destroyed by a woman named Alla (Marina Neyolova). Alla fell in love with Butchkin, and her infatuation and step-by-step pressure put Butchkin under great pressure. Just to protect Alla from harm, Butchkin began an intimate relationship with Alla. At the same time, he had to find ways to keep this secret from his wife Nina (Natalya Gundareva). The once leisurely and calm life no longer exists. Butchkin is exhausted from dealing with his wife and lover every day. At the same time, the omissions in his work also made Butchkin suffer. Facing the dual pressures of family and career, he felt that he was collapsing.
