Badie Threadgoode grew up in Polustanka, with his beautiful mother Ruth and his beloved aunt, the cheerful hooligan Idgie. Ruth and Idgie ran a cafe that was adored by all the residents of the Stop Station, and not only the Stop Station. But time knows no pity, the town fell into decay, its inhabitants dispersed in all directions, everything was overgrown with weeds, the houses were boarded up. Sadness and silence enveloped the once lively and cheerful stop; it turned into a ghost town. Badi has long since not only grown up, but also grown old. And the desire to return to a happy past became stronger and stronger in him, to walk at least once more through the places of his childhood, to visit the Stop Station, to look into a cafe... And one day he decides to escape to where he was so happy, where the best people on earth lived. In this nostalgic adventure, he will be joined by other Fanny Flagg heroes, sweet, funny, charming and so relatable. We return to Polustank to taste fried green tomatoes again.
