17-year-old Denny, the eldest son in the family of Annie and Arthur Pope. For 15 years now, a family of poles has been living under fictional names. Once, in the stormy 60s, Denny’s parents under the influence of great changes in society and politics became activists of the anti-war movement and fell into “black lists”. Since then, they began an illegal life. But the sons have grown up, and it becomes more difficult to wander from place to place. In addition, in Dennie the congenital talent of the pianist suddenly manifests itself, and he receives an invitation from a prestigious music school. The young man needs an instrument that the family cannot afford. After all, the day is not far off when you again have to act from a raised place. And Denny has first love. He suffers, realizing that his secrecy seriously complicates the relationship with Lorina. The young man will have a difficult choice: between the adored family and the opportunity to be free to go his own way.
