Plot synopsis
The film is about Georgian ballet master Tamaze Basakidze who once changed the lives of all his family members. After being fired from his position as director and ballet master of the Tchaboukiani dance school in Tbilisi and being accused of embezzlement, he was forced to leave for Russia in 2004. He spent 15 years at the Yekaterinburg Opera. He is still fighting to regain his honor in Georgia and has contact with his family only by phone. In the course of the film, the authors try to find answers to the following questions: has the fight not lasted too long? How can children grow up with a father "on the phone" and how can one keep one's love and remain faithful at a distance for 13 years?
