[1][2] Every morning successful advertising specialist Konstantin Arkhipov hurries to yet another meeting with the unknown — a project that promises career growth, voices of women calling and beckoning on the phone, a new secretary chosen up to high standards.
At work, constant squabbles and intrigues, the relationship with his wife - at a dead end, his beloved daughter has become self-absorbed, his mother has not spoken to him for a long time.
In an effort to push back all the difficulties, he constantly flies somewhere and is terribly tired of such a rush.
The crisis caused by the middle age coincides for the hero with an unpleasant discovery: after seeing the doctor's card in the course of a scheduled examination, the hero reads there that he has cancer and only a few months left to live.
Konstantin decides to do what he has not done, express everything he could not say, and, finally, live as the heart and conscience dictate.
