Two authors, he and she, are forced to work together on a script about love. They were together, but broke up a few years ago, broke up badly and have not seen each other since. Their heroes - teachers at a music school, in turn, are forced to cope with a difficult situation together. To calm her mother down, the heroine passes off her colleague as her young man. But mom's persistence makes them more and more bogged down in this game. Two lines of relationship - the authors and their heroes-teachers are intertwined around common themes: love, trust, sex, betrayal, friendship, responsibility, the possibility and impossibility of living together.
