When you're in love with three girls at once, even the walls of a psychiatric clinic are no obstacle to happiness, and life in a Soviet military looney bin can enthrall more than an adventure movie. A lousy soldier, a bad poet, and an imperfect lover – yet it isn't all bad if you feel good, and even the surrounding psychos become your friends, your doctor becomes your lover, and dreams become a reality. This is a story about freedom, for which you can risk everything, even freedom itself.
