It's September 2015 and Moscow is witnessing its warmest autumn in living memory. Svitlana Khristenko, a patriotic Ukrainian with dual Russian-Ukrainian citizenship, chooses to live in Moscow, despite her conflicting loyalties. The never-ending political tensions between Svitlana's two countries have created serious divisions in Moscow's society with clear labels being assigned to those who choose a side. Despite her strong political views, all Svitlana wants is to adjust to the changes caused by a topsy-turvy Russian economy, while providing her daughter a good life.Drawing from vivid post-Soviet life, Ajay Kamalakaran weaves a saga of satire and intrigue -- a unique look at contemporary Russian society.
