Dreamers

Summer, St. Petersburg. Denis lives in a depressive port area overlooking ferries and the smell of the sea mixed with diesel fuel. In Tanya's house on Petrogradka, there is a century-old parquet floor and an antique wardrobe. The newly blossomed first love story turns into a crazy action with a fight, a chase, resourceful employees from the Ministry of Emergency Situations, and huge amounts of money.

What a scenario for Hollywood! But in real life, there is no place for a happy ending. Tanya writes a fantasy about a magical land where one can be unconditionally happy. Denis is about to experience a difficult phase of self-awareness here and now and acceptance of the world without illusions alongside her.
