Aron Borisovich lebt in einer heilen Welt der Bücher und kultureller Geschehnisse, in der der gute Glaube an seine Mitmenschen noch einen Platz hat. Eines Tages trifft der pensionierte Literaturlehrer jedoch auf zwei seiner ehemaligen Schüler. Nikolay and Andrey haben ihre Liebe zur Literatur dank ihrem Lehrer bewahrt, doch haben sie sich leider ansonsten in entgegengesetzte Richtungen entwickelt. Ob der gute Glaube Arons dieser Erkenntnis standhalten kann?
