Young Nina wakes up in the entryway, her dress torn, her face aching from bruises. It takes a while, but she remembers: the man she loved turned out to be a criminal and a scoundrel. And she absolutely mustn't let him see her again.

Nina can't return home: it's dangerous, and she and her mother had a terrible fight the last time they saw each other. So what should she do now? Elderly Carmela lives in the same entryway: the last local representative of a once large family, whose youngest child has been living in America for several years. More than anything, Carmela misses her son and granddaughter, whom she sometimes barely remembers due to dementia...

So when Carmela mistakes Nina for her beloved granddaughter, it changes the lives of several families. Full of everyday tragedy and psychological insight, this story explores all aspects of a woman's life in the modern world, the daily obstacles she faces, and how true support can help her overcome everything.
