A whimsical, character-driven comedy about an eccentric Soviet pen pal enthusiast whose solitary hobby unexpectedly connects him to the wider world.

Evgeniy's hobby is to send fake letters to real countries. He has collected a letter from every country except New Zealand, and he sends a letter there. Things turn worst when he actually receives a letter from someone there.
