The movie is set in the early fifties in a provincial Uzbek town. Fear and alienation have penetrated this once cozy town. The hero of the film, teenager Alik, once witnesses a boorish act of a neighbor who made a dizzying career out of denunciations. Standing up for a helpless woman, the young hero, thereby signing his own verdict.
