Winter in New York. Sasha, a Russian illegal immigrant, breaks up with her married British-Armenian carpet salesman lover and needs to find a job. Babken wants to become an actor, but his wife doesn't support his new hobby. Hamlet, his cousin, is a transsexual hiding his identity from his family. After PORTRET V SUMERKAKH (2011) the duo Nikonova / Dikhovichnaya returns with a light-hearted comedy about people from various cultural backgrounds united by the search for the American dream.
