His older brother Anton is a partisan, fighting against the Polish occupiers. In contrast to him, Pasha takes a neutral position. The death of a loved one makes him contemplate simple human values: family, homeland, which are now divided by the border. A meeting with the Soviet intelligence officer Lesya Rubtsova dramatically changes his life.
