Sünopsis

Characters of this film were born in 1990s, the times where there were no rules and stability in our country. Everything that had happened before was destroyed, while at the same time there was no vision for the future. Children of this generation lack ideals and motivation. Casual internet relationships, sex and break-ups satisfy their intimate needs. They start early with smoking, drinking and sex. These young people listen to strange music, agree on everything and are ready for everything. They have no big ambitions – a simple, steady job at the supermarket is enough for them. Behind such boring everyday life lies a deep philosophical drama. Fifteen-year old Snezhana lives together with sixteen-year old Vova for already half a year. Vova's mother is happy about the situation as the girl is good for him. The young couple is expecting a baby. Being under age, the parents decide to graduate from the 9th grade before the baby's birth. When the baby is born, everything will change, Snežana will become a mother. The baby girl has never seen her father – that explains her interest towards adult life. Yet, children often tend to start repeating their parents' mistakes ... How is Snezhana doing after the baby's born? Is Vova her father after all? What is Vova doing with his life after graduation?
