35-year-old bright, beautiful, modern teacher Vera Andreeva has been looking for her son for 17 years, whom she gave away, facing a difficult choice. In her youth, Vera had everything for happiness: first love with a classmate Misha, an unexpected but happy pregnancy. Everything collapsed when she, 17, was informed of her mother's diagnosis, for whose life she had to fight for a lot of money. Further, as if in a fog: deception with the sale of my mother's apartment, hopelessness, rapid childbirth, a premature baby. Delirious in intensive care, Vera makes a desperate decision - to sacrifice her motherhood and still cannot forgive herself for this.
