A sentimental-crime tale about love, philosophy, and adventurous escapades. In New York—the city of skyscrapers, expensive shops, considerable opportunities, and, alas, big illusions—one day the fates of Sonya and Stanley intersect. An amazing girl, Sonya, who harmoniously combines kindness, responsiveness, and a criminal talent, searches for herself in risky adventures and in philosophical contemplation of reality. Stanley, a policeman, honestly and conscientiously performs his duty. Will they be able to find a common path to happiness? And on the way to understanding wisdom and happiness, how can they strike a balance between "Wei" and "Wu-wei": action and passive non-action?
