Synopsis

Spoiler shield

Two women, two destinies, two Nastyas. One is a policewoman, the other a criminal. But who of them is actually in prison? At the basis of the script lies the real story of Nastya Cherepanova, a postwoman from near Nizhni Novgorod, who in 2011 stole pensions from a savings bank and went to search for a better life with her lover.

“Some stories are better left unspoiled.”
