The camera panned across a reception hall. It was decorated in the early nineties excess I knew well—pastel streamers, those heart-shaped chairs, and a buffet table groaning with shrimp cocktail.

The film centers on Misha (Marat Basharov), a young, aimless former army pilot now working a dead-end job in a provincial Russian mining town. He is desperately in love with Tanya (Mariya Mironova), a beautiful but cynical bride-to-be who works at a local factory and has resigned herself to marrying a wealthier, older man.
