WHEN OBSTACLES ARE IN THE WAY
IS LOVE ENOUGH, AND IS JUSTICE JUST AN ILLUSION….
*Hopeful and encouraging.*
*A story of first love, fight against corruption and social injustice, belief in one self and persistence.*
Soviet Union, 1986
Alexandra and Lusine are two best friends who have spent their childhood in a quiet village of Lokosovo.
Lusine dreams of a fulfilling career as a professor in medicine, while all Alexandra wants to do is make her veteran father and mother proud. Enrolled at a medical school, they move to the city of Moscow to start their new life.
Davit is a graduating law student and Lusine’s brother. He knows the darker side of the city all too well, and comes across a few challenges of his own as he struggles in a desperate fight for justice.
Tolya and Zhdan are best friends studying and training in the Moscow military institute. Destiny brings them closer to Alexandra and Lusine, but there are rivals in the way of their newly formed relationships: Davit’s protectiveness and the Gruzinsky family - founders of a dangerous illegal operation in Yekaterinburg, which makes its way into Moscow in the most unexpected ways.
With so many obstacles in the way, can Alexandra make her newly found relationship with Tolya work, and can Lusine come to terms with the differences between her own social status and Zhdan’s?
