What can you bring home from a parents’ meeting besides information and a headache? But that doesn’t apply to Nina—she managed to bring a half-mangy puppy that she bought from an irresponsible owner. The problem isn’t solved, though: instead of the puppy, her classmate and Polina’s family want to get someone even cooler, so they’ll have all the most fashionable and expensive things. Nina’s not going to stand aside—though they already have plenty of things to do, just look at training the granddad! Yes, you can live side by side your whole life and still not really know your relatives—until you suddenly get to know them for real. And not just to know them, but to create a whole coalition to protect granddad from unbearable relatives.
In any case, it turns out that despite all their unbearable behavior, Aunts Mila and Inna are “their own people” too: when it’s time to defend their niece from an evil neighbor, they will take him on—and even introduce him to a tree… many times—and drive him into the tree. After all, you shouldn’t mess with members of their family!
Life in the Refuge doesn’t stop even on the snowiest days—there’s always something to be surprised by and something to laugh about.
