Sofiko is a journalist working for a Georgian daily. She meets the readers writing to her and compassionately tries to help them. She has a passion for her work, leaving her little time to dedicate to her husband Artchil and her two children. The destiny of her mother, arrested under Staline and later rehabilitated when she was already an adolescent, left a deep mark on her. One day, she sees her husband with a young beautiful woman seeming available… “These encounters are funny, sad and colorful. However, the most important encounter Sofiko makes is withherself, while problems suddenly change her life. What will happen next? We do not know, nor does she. However, we do know that she will overcome her grief and continue to work and to bring up her children: life taught her to be brave.” Lana Gogoberidzé
