Zhenya is a 19-year-old Muscovite who has lived on his own for a while in Berlin. One day he receives a visit from his elder brother Denis. Both brothers have been really looking forward to the meeting, but it soon becomes apparent that it is difficult for them to find the right words. Zhenya has meanwhile developed into an independent, mature person and expects his brother to stick to his rules, but Dennis’ ego rebels against this. So the normal state of affairs is restored in no time: the brothers could happily drink each other’s blood. Until the moment of Dennis’ departure approaches and they both regret the missed opportunity.
