A young couple lives in a shared apartment with their grandmother, who constantly interferes in their lives. They can't do anything on their own, they can't even be alone in intimate moments. The son-in-law decides to "get rid" of his grandmother and diligently reads dating ads. Finally, under the pretext of buying a canary, he takes his grandmother to a gamekeeper's lodge, where a lonely gamekeeper lives, longing for company. However, the grandmother sees through the ruse. Will the couple manage to resolve the problem with their grandmother? And how will the grandmother herself react to all of this?
