In the early sunny morning, the postman delivered to the Royal Society – the English Academy of Sciences, a letter from an extremely angry American scientist: "Some Kelvin began to claim a galvanometer, which, as the whole world knows, was invented by the respected Sir William Thomson!" The American was outraged by the impostor's audacity, the indifference of the Royal Society and wondered why Professor Thomson himself was silent. William Thomson and Lord Kelvin are two names inextricably linked in the history of science.

New Year is a kind of milestone, the moment of summing up, making decisions. New Year is a new beginning, time to dream, make wishes and wait for miracles ... While all of Moscow is buying up gifts and decorating Christmas trees, Denis is desperately trying to manage to open the bar by December 31 and prove his worth to his father. Irina is more and more immersed in work, trying not to notice either the decorated office, or the approaching holidays, or her own loneliness. Nastya is a first-year student, all alone in a strange Moscow, misses her mother, works in a cafe and, smiling with all her strength, brings people joy and coffee. Sveta is Snegurochka, and to whom, how could she not be happy about the New Year and give others a festive mood, but she’s not going smoothly either: her beloved husband is completely immersed in the world of computer games and does not notice either his son, or Sveta, or reality.
