This is a documentary film about five actresses of different generations who played the same role of Masha in Anton Chekhov's play 'The Seagull'. Masha is a woman who is in love with Konstantin, unrequitedly and for ever. This role left a mark of some sort in all the actresses' lives. The film is about parallels between their lives and the role they played, it is about the enclosed world of loneliness to which one comes and struggles to leave.

Based on the story of Pyatras Tsvirka "The Well". The story of how Matas Kryauza, a farmer, wanting to take over the farm of his father-in-law, who had deceived him with a dowry, buried Motskus's father alive by boarding up an old well, where Motskus drunkenly fell.
