Description

In calm provincial Ensk, pre-New Year bustle is underway, and no one yet knows that very soon the lives of three families will become closely intertwined. The leap year will bring not only the long-awaited changes, but also harsh trials that will force the heroes to look anew at love and loyalty, at the familiar way of life, and at what they believed to be unshakable. This is a story about how easily people’s well-being collapses—and what inner strength helps keep you afloat.

In the enchan’s world, there are ordinary joys and worries: work, home, children, feelings, quarrels and reconciliations, family secrets and dramas. The story follows three families whose fates will unexpectedly and painfully intertwine, leaving behind consequences it will be hard to recover from. For now, the town lives on the anticipation of celebration and hope for the best—but what will this leap year be like for them?
