A couple spends most of their time talking about their past and their dreams. During this time, they are constantly monitored and analyzed by voices, bodies, and external devices.

Based on L. Yelisieieva’s short story "Far Away". In the 1920s–30s, a girl named Liolia grows up in poverty after her father is killed in the so-called “Civil War.” Her mother’s new marriage brings fear and violence into the home, so Liolia is sent to live with her grandmother, where she finds peace—though only briefly.
