Portrait of the Suzdal masseur Boris, who listens attentively to his patients, and speaks no less than them himself. To women over fifty he plays "sex music", to little girls he sings choruses of his own composition with "Hallelujah" at the end, to a patient with a Bible in her head he asks why there is no Boris among the apostles: "It's a Jewish name". It seems that the hero does not waste a minute like the film which in a short film makes between the story of Boris's life told willingly by himself. "I married four times for love" he says.
