In ordinary life, Raushan and Zharkyn would never have met: Raushan is an ambitious businesswoman, Zharkyn is a single father whose life takes place behind the grill of an inexpensive kebab shop. Fate brings them together in an organ transplant clinic. Raushan is diagnosed with kidney failure, and Zharkin, who has lost his job and needs money, is forced to become a donor for Raushan. Before the operation, they will have to undergo a course in order to normalize the overall indicators of the body. After a while, the characters get closer, but their goal remains the same — kidney transplantation. On the day of the operation, Zharkyn will face a difficult choice: a large sum that will ensure a carefree life for him and his daughter, or saving Raushan's life.
