The story

Andrey, a journalist with great ambitions, is approaching his fortieth birthday as a financial and emotional bankrupt. Meeting with young Sasha, nicknamed Ugolek, an unusual model with burnt skin, gives him a chance to start from scratch. He writes an article about the fate of Ugolka, which causes a wide public response. Andrey goes to Sasha's homeland, Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky, to investigate other facts from her past. Andrey will have to do hard work to uncover the truth and bring it to his readers. Sasha helps him pass this test, who, despite the severe trauma of childhood, turns out to be able to lead him out of a life impasse.
