Four cheaters, one hotel, zero dignity — Soviet farce at its most deliciously awkward.
Volodya, a man of about fifty, is traveling south with his charming mistress Olya. At the same time, he tells his wife that he is going fishing on Solovki. And she also goes south...to her lover Givi. Having accidentally seen an unfaithful wife, the first couple takes her under surveillance - and the serene love of the heroes takes on an adventurous character.
