About
An actress and theater dancer flies to India to find her mother, who once abandoned her and joined a certain sect. Soon she no longer understands whether what she sees is happening in India or whether it is the scenery inside her native theater. Masks, dolls, songs - does this happen in a small town square or on one of the venues in St. Petersburg?
