My Life

Misaіl Poloznev, nicknamed “Little Benefit,” is a provincial nobleman, the son of a respected architect. He’s already 25, but still can’t find his place in life. He worked as a telegraph operator, then served as a volunteer, and even tried himself as a pharmacist… In the end, he starts working as an ordinary painter.

In a small town where nepotism and bribery rule, such an event cannot go unnoticed—society turns away from the hero.

And it’s impossible to predict what Misaіl’s choice will lead to: overcoming a moral crisis and getting a ticket into a new life—or voluntary isolation, regression, and an ultimate fall.
