Weekends offer a mix of political rallies and intimate encounters with her ex-husband, a balding scientific researcher. On the other hand, Victoria, hailing from the provinces, embraces a more hedonistic lifestyle. For her, a vacation in a big city is marked by indulgence in vodka, sex, drugs, and the rhythmic power of music.
Despite their stark differences, destiny brings Lisa and Victoria together, and a unique bond begins to form. Like water and fire, they are contrasting forces, embodying the duality of a nun and a harlot.
The film delves into themes of identity, transformation, and the power of shared experiences. As Lisa and Victoria navigate their intertwined lives, audiences witness the journey of self-discovery, where the boundaries of conventionality blur, and new possibilities emerge.
