Peace! Friendship! Chewing Gum! Don't Rush to Grow Up

Summer on the boundary between childhood and adulthood. The first truly important choices, the first losses of illusion, the first discoveries.

Sanka Ryabinin, like the whole country in the nineties, is trying to feel his way in a reality where the old laws no longer apply, and new ones have not yet taken shape.

Summer of 1994. Sanka searches for his place in a world where the line between good and evil is becoming harder and harder to distinguish. Trials multiply: street clashes grow more ruthless, and his first love—bright and trusting—unexpectedly runs into the hard rules of the criminal environment.

This isn’t just the next step in a coming-of-age story at the fracture point of an era. It is an intense drama about love and betrayal, friendship and hope, staged against the backdrop of the wild nineties—the time of expectations and collapse, when any day might turn out to be the last. Will the heroes be able to hold onto their principles and not lose themselves in a world where money and power decide everything?
