About
Yug Kipen is a tight—lipped, modest boy raised by his grandmother. Yug's mother died when he was three years old, and he never saw his father. Everything changes when, on his 14th birthday, Yug discovers the money his father sent in his grandmother's closet. From this moment begins the story of the great journey of the South in search of his father. Potential fathers are scattered all over Russia. The South will have to cross the whole country to meet everyone. He will visit the most beautiful corners of our country, and of course, he will see the main attraction of Russia — people! It is not easy for a 14-year-old teenager to make such a journey, in principle, and even more difficult for the South, because he has a bunch of phobias that he will have to overcome every time.
