Plot synopsis
The film tells the story of a day in the life of an autistic boy. His only day off turns into an endless road to his deceased father, whose image becomes more ghostly and almost inaccessible with each obstacle. Sachka's journey is the journey of rejection by those around him. Everyone pushes him away, even the closest people. First his grandmother, then his mother, and finally his former classmates. Now his home is a boarding school.
