Transcript
00:00The noisy airport was filled with the chatter of children gathered for a festival in Sochi.
00:05Among them, like an island of calm in a stormy sea, stood their theater club leader, Tatyana Viktorovna.
00:13Accompanying the group for formal reasons was the school's deputy principal, Maria Genrykovna.
00:19Tanya wasn't exactly thrilled about this administrative supervision,
00:23but outwardly remained composed while the children bustled and made noise.
00:27A problem arose. One of the girls had a discrepancy in her documents.
00:32Maria Genrykovna, usually so organized, was at a loss,
00:37and Tanya's seemingly carefree demeanor only irritated her further.
00:41Yet it was Tanya who unexpectedly found a solution by printing out the electronic ticket, instantly resolving the issue.
00:49In the waiting area, the children finally settled down.
00:52Tanya sat a bit apart, while Maria Genrykovna, keeping her distance, took a seat opposite her.
00:59Tanya stood up and, turning to the deputy principal with a hint of playful sarcasm in her voice,
01:04asked to have two of her students roomed together.
01:08Maria Genrykovna, as if personally offended,
01:11curtly requested that Tatyana Viktorovna not disturb her until the flight's arrival.
01:15At the modest Sochi hotel, the tired children nearly fell asleep right in the lobby,
01:21while the teachers waited for the paperwork to be completed.
01:24Showing persistence, they finally secured the room keys and settled into their accommodations.
01:30The morning greeted Tanya with the sound of the surf.
01:33She sat on a lounge chair, admiring the Sochi sea and sipping a cup of coffee she had managed to
01:38find somewhere.
01:39Her gaze drifted toward the pier and lingered on the solitary figure of Maria Genrykovna,
01:46slowly walking along the wooden planks.
01:48Without hesitation, Tanya headed in her direction.
01:52When they drew level, they began to talk.
01:54With a faint smile, Tanya promised that next time she would bring coffee for the deputy principal as well,
02:01black, no sugar, no milk, and very strong, perfectly guessing her taste.
02:06Her tone carried a playful, teasing note, as if she were gently mocking Maria Genrykovna's excessive strictness,
02:13the kind that made one instinctively want to stand at attention.
02:17Between them began a subtle, almost weightless game,
02:21where each tried to test the boundaries of the other and learn a little more.
02:25Maria Genrykovna looked at Tatyana Viktorovna appraisingly,
02:29but now without her former irritation,
02:31there was a warm spark of understanding in her eyes,
02:35as she realized that behind the clown's mask hid an exceptional person.
02:39In the assembly hall, where performances were taking place,
02:43they sat side by side.
02:45Tanya, dying of boredom from yet another number,
02:48whispered to the deputy principal suggesting they sneak away,
02:52but though Maria wanted to,
02:54she restrained herself,
02:55maintaining her mask of seriousness.
02:57At that moment, their conversation was interrupted by one of the students,
03:02Anya.
03:03The girl complained that she urgently needed to step outside.
03:07Tanya, seizing the long-awaited chance,
03:10immediately stood up and,
03:11with a mischievous glint in her eye,
03:13remarked to Maria Genrykovna
03:15that now she simply had to follow Anya to keep an eye on her.
03:19While the performance continued on stage,
03:21Tanya and Anya strolled through the streets,
03:24eating ice cream,
03:25and carefreely swinging on swings.
03:27When the show ended,
03:28and the children came out with the deputy principal,
03:31Maria Genrykovna
03:33immediately began looking around for Tanya.
03:36Not seeing her,
03:37she dialed her number.
03:38The melody of the ringtone matched the rhythm of the music
03:41to which Anya had started dancing.
03:44Tanya, caught up in the girl's cheerful mood,
03:47joined in,
03:47and soon the two of them were laughing and dancing under the open sky.
03:51From afar,
03:53Maria Genrykovna noticed them and,
03:55realizing that the melody playing was her own ringtone,
03:58couldn't help but smile.
04:00In that moment,
04:01she no longer saw Tanya as just a colleague,
04:04but as a vivid,
04:05open,
04:06and irresistibly captivating person
04:08who was beginning to take up more and more space in her heart.
04:11Despite her outward sharpness and teasing remarks,
04:15Tanya was surprised to realize her growing affection for Maria Genrykovna.
04:19Her gaze lingered on the deputy principal more and more often,
04:23noticing every detail with genuine admiration.
04:27Maria Genrykovna, in turn,
04:29tried to maintain her usual cold composure,
04:32carefully hiding the sympathy awakening within her.
04:35In the cafeteria,
04:37one of the festival organizers approached them
04:39and asked Tanya to come by later to discuss an important matter.
04:42That conversation turned into a real drama for her.
04:46It turned out that the title of her play,
04:48Strawberry Wine,
04:49was, in the jury's opinion,
04:51promoting alcohol
04:52and therefore unsuitable for a children's event.
04:55The poster featuring a bottle
04:57also had to be replaced immediately.
05:00Passionately defending her creation,
05:02Tanya tried to prove
05:03that it was a piece of classic literature
05:05with no inappropriate undertones,
05:08but the organizer remained adamant,
05:10insisting on a compromise.
05:12At the subsequent meeting,
05:14Tanya looked both angry and dejected.
05:17Outraged,
05:18she complained to Maria Genrykovna
05:20that with such an approach,
05:22they'd have to rename half of the world's classics.
05:25The deputy principal quietly laughed,
05:28trying not to draw attention,
05:29and in her laughter there was a hint of understanding
05:32and solidarity with Tanya's frustration.
05:35Seeing how upset she was,
05:37Maria Genrykovna gently invited Tanya
05:40to join her for dinner at a restaurant,
05:42hoping to distract her from the heavy thoughts.
05:45But Tanya declined,
05:47saying she needed to rehearse urgently.
05:49That evening,
05:50while Maria Genrykovna waited for a taxi,
05:53preparations for the play
05:54were in full swing in the hotel lobby.
05:57Tanya was trying to persuade the staff
05:59to turn off the lights for one of the scenes,
06:01but her efforts were in vain.
06:03Watching from afar
06:05and seeing Tanya's helplessness
06:07in such mundane matters,
06:09Maria Genrykovna decided to step in.
06:11With ease,
06:12she negotiated with the administrator,
06:14got what she wanted,
06:15and the lights went out.
06:17Having solved the issue,
06:18she quietly stepped away,
06:20leaving Tanya to create her art.
06:22The next morning,
06:23once again greeted them with the sound of waves.
06:26Sitting on lounge chairs,
06:28they drank coffee.
06:29Tanya's gaze repeatedly turned toward Maria Genrykovna,
06:32as if she were searching for the right words
06:35to say something important.
06:36The latter, however,
06:38pretended to be entirely absorbed
06:40in watching the sea.
06:42Breaking the long silence,
06:44Tanya suddenly asked if the coffee was good.
06:46Without looking at her,
06:48Maria Genrykovna replied that it was excellent,
06:50but asked her not to stare so intently.
06:53Tanya jumped up,
06:54muttering that switching to you
06:56instead of the formal you
06:57was proof enough of the coffee's exceptional quality
07:00and began tossing pebbles into the water.
07:03At that moment,
07:04her phone rang.
07:05It was her husband.
07:07Maria Genrykovna reminded Tanya about the call,
07:10but she didn't want to answer.
07:11In the conversation that followed,
07:13the deputy principal cautiously hinted
07:16at rumors among the children
07:17that Tanya's husband had left her.
07:19Instead of getting upset,
07:21Tanya,
07:22as if opening her soul,
07:24admitted that in their relationship,
07:25there had never been an apogee,
07:27that state when being with someone
07:30simply feels right,
07:31when that person makes you smile.
07:33Maria Genrykovna listened closely,
07:36catching every breath,
07:37and it seemed to her
07:38that she understood the subtle implication,
07:41yet she continued to restrain herself,
07:43not allowing her feelings to break free.
07:46The new meeting with the festival organizer
07:48brought nothing but disappointment.
07:50He had replaced the poster on his own,
07:53insisting that the new one was perfect.
07:55Tanya was devastated.
07:57Seeing her state,
07:59Maria Genrykovna tried to stand up for her,
08:01suggesting that they restore the original version,
08:04but the organizer coldly replied
08:06that rejecting the new poster
08:07would mean the play's removal from the competition.
08:11The next rehearsal was overshadowed
08:13not only by external problems,
08:15but also by internal conflict among the young actors.
08:19Anya, who played the lead role,
08:21was in love with her partner Sasha,
08:23but her feelings weren't mutual.
08:26Tanya tried to put out this emotional fire,
08:28while Maria Genrykovna watched from the sidelines,
08:31admiring her pedagogical intuition.
08:34After rehearsal,
08:35they walked together along the embankment.
08:38Maria Genrykovna had already ordered oysters
08:41and champagne over the phone.
08:43Suddenly, without stopping,
08:44she asked how much longer Tanya
08:46was going to keep addressing her formally as
08:49you.
08:50Without slowing her pace,
08:51Tanya smiled,
08:53a smile laced with irony
08:54and a hint of challenge,
08:56and replied that soon,
08:58Maria Genrykovna wouldn't be able to stop her at all,
09:01but for now,
09:02there still remained a certain barrier between them.
09:05Their attention was caught by a noisy wedding.
09:08Maria Genrykovna immediately recognized
09:10the Armenian traditions.
09:12Her husband was Armenian.
09:14Tanya seized the opportunity
09:16and persuaded her to take a look inside.
09:19Inside, there was pure joy.
09:22Music thundered.
09:24Guests congratulated the newlyweds.
09:26Finding the drinks table,
09:27they both allowed themselves to relax.
09:30Soon, they quietly settled at one of the tables.
09:33Maria, familiar with the customs,
09:35easily found common ground with a nearby Armenian guest.
09:39Tanya simply sat,
09:41smiling and sipping from her glass,
09:43watching the deputy principal.
09:45Having attended such weddings before with her husband,
09:48Maria joined the dancing.
09:50She laughed and mingled,
09:52men spinning around her.
09:54Watching this,
09:55Tanya suddenly felt a sharp sting of jealousy and loneliness.
09:59Wanting to draw attention,
10:00she climbed over the railing and jumped into the water.
10:03Maria and the men ran to the shore,
10:05but she calmed them down,
10:06saying Tanya was fine.
10:08She was just swimming.
10:10When they left,
10:11Tanya emerged from the water
10:13and Maria looked at her with undisguised tenderness.
10:16With a touch of playful jealousy,
10:18she asked whether her admirers had already abandoned her.
10:22Then Tanya suddenly asked her to tell her biggest secret.
10:25And Maria, as if losing control,
10:28blurted out that all her teeth were artificial.
10:31The words slipped out on their own,
10:32as if she had truly longed to open up.
10:35But only to her.
10:37Tanya laughed instead of mocking
10:39and immediately demanded to see them.
10:42Maria first refused, embarrassed,
10:44but under Tanya's insistent, curious gaze,
10:47she hesitantly lifted her lips for a brief moment,
10:51showing a perfectly even row.
10:53Their walk back to the hotel
10:55was filled with a kind of light madness.
10:58Tanya, playing music on her phone,
11:00danced as she walked.
11:02Maria, following behind,
11:03suddenly demanded that Tanya take off her clothes.
11:07With a teasing smile,
11:08pretending not to understand the hint,
11:10Tanya quipped that such things
11:12should probably happen in a more suitable place,
11:15not on the street.
11:16But the deputy principal was insistent.
11:19Tanya began to untie the knot of her dress at the waist,
11:22struggling with it,
11:23and finally asked for help.
11:25Maria helped her,
11:26lifting the dress slightly,
11:28then draped her own jacket over Tanya's shoulders.
11:30Tanya, trying it on,
11:33joked playfully about how well it suited her.
11:36Then Maria stepped closer,
11:38and looking into her face,
11:40softly said that her mascara had smudged.
11:43She gently touched Tanya's face,
11:45wiping the traces of makeup from beneath her eyes.
11:48Suddenly she took an awkward step forward,
11:51finding herself right in front of Maria.
11:53The deputy principal instinctively pressed her lips together,
11:56air between them grew electric.
11:58It seemed that in another heartbeat,
12:00their lips would meet.
12:02But Maria stepped back,
12:04muttering that Tanya had stumbled,
12:05picked up a bottle,
12:06and walked away.
12:08Tanya followed,
12:09realizing that something between them
12:11had changed forever.
12:12The door closed behind them,
12:14the only boundary between them
12:16and the rest of the world.
12:18Tanya, barely crossing the threshold,
12:21wrapped herself in a blanket
12:22and fell onto the bed,
12:23mumbling, incoherent, half-sleepy words
12:26directed at Maria Genrikovna.
12:28Seeing that it was already four in the morning,
12:31Maria softly said it was time to sleep.
12:34She took an extra blanket from the shelf
12:36and came closer to the bed,
12:38ending up right beside Tanya.
12:40Tanya sat up.
12:41Quietly and trustfully, she asked,
12:44Will you remember my voice?
12:47The way we laughed?
12:48Maria Genrikovna replied with a faint,
12:51barely perceptible smile.
12:53I will.
12:54Then Tanya gently placed her palms
12:56on the deputy principal's face,
12:58covering her eyes and whispered,
13:00Do you know what color my eyes are?
13:03Maria carefully moved her hands away
13:05and, looking directly at her,
13:08asked whether Tanya had an off-button somewhere.
13:11In response,
13:12Tanya playfully lifted her head,
13:14pointing to her own neck.
13:16Maria exhaled almost soundlessly,
13:19Turn it off yourself.
13:21After that,
13:22only silence,
13:24and the secret that wrapped them until morning.
13:27Morning came,
13:28they had slept in the same bed,
13:29and the air was filled with a silent understanding
13:32of what had happened.
13:33The silence was broken by Anya,
13:35who entered the room to announce
13:37that everyone was looking for them.
13:39Maria Genrikovna jumped up abruptly,
13:42while Tanya only lazily opened her eyes.
13:45With tenderness and her usual teasing tone,
13:48Tanya reproached the deputy principal
13:50for not setting an alarm.
13:52In response,
13:53Maria Genrikovna looked at her
13:55and suddenly switched to the formal,
13:57You,
13:57her voice cold and official.
14:00That sudden distance pierced Tanya like a knife,
14:03leaving her hurt and disappointed.
14:05The deputy principal headed to the bathroom,
14:08but the door jammed.
14:09Tanya, teasing again,
14:11asked why she needed to lock it at all,
14:13and then,
14:14with feigned recollection,
14:16added,
14:16Ah, yes, I forgot.
14:18You have that special procedure.
14:20Take it out,
14:21put it in.
14:22When Maria Genrikovna finally emerged,
14:25dressed and composed,
14:26she coldly announced
14:28that Tanya's theater club
14:29was being shut down.
14:31She said it with such detachment,
14:33as if she wanted to wound,
14:34as if nothing had ever happened between them,
14:37as if they were strangers once more.
14:39In the auditorium,
14:41the children gathered for the final rehearsal,
14:43and Maria Genrikovna was there as well.
14:46When Tanya entered the hall,
14:48it was as if the weight of everything
14:50crashed down on her at once,
14:52the deputy principal's coldness
14:54and the news of her theater club
14:55being shut down.
14:57She felt lost and utterly alone.
14:59Later,
15:00during the children's walk
15:01through the Boxwood Grove,
15:03Tanya and Maria Genrikovna walked apart,
15:06avoiding any conversation.
15:08Anya,
15:08who had refused to join the group,
15:10stayed behind with Tanya.
15:12Wanting to sting her,
15:14the girl asked mockingly
15:15what the parents would say
15:16if they found out
15:17that Tanya and Maria Genrikovna
15:19were sleeping together.
15:21Tanya retorted sharply
15:22that it was none of her business.
15:24Back at the hotel,
15:25Tanya was speaking in her room
15:27with the mother of one of the students.
15:29When Maria Genrikovna
15:30appeared at the door
15:31to announce lunch,
15:32she saw Tanya in a gray dress,
15:34laughing and animated.
15:36Their eyes met
15:37and Tanya immediately fell silent.
15:40Maria's gaze
15:41slowly traveled up and down her
15:43and she couldn't help
15:44but admit to herself
15:45how strikingly attractive Tatiana was.
15:48When the children rushed into the room
15:50with a note from Anya,
15:51Tanya immediately went to find her
15:53and discovered the girl
15:54by the ping pong table.
15:55They played for a while,
15:57then sat side by side.
15:59Looking into the distance,
16:00Tanya gently explained to Anya
16:02that Sasha didn't love her,
16:03but added that
16:04true love looks truly beautiful.
16:07Anya nodded in understanding,
16:09as if guessing
16:10what was really happening
16:11between her teacher
16:12and the deputy principal.
16:14On the day of the performance,
16:15the children gave a brilliant show,
16:17the audience applauded,
16:19and even Maria Genrikovna
16:21couldn't hide her approval.
16:23However,
16:24at the jury's meeting,
16:25the play was deemed
16:26too mature and lacking in meaning,
16:28and it was stripped of any awards.
16:30Maria suggested buying certificates herself
16:32to cheer up the children,
16:34but Tanya insisted
16:35that they should know the truth.
16:37At the awards ceremony,
16:39Tanya sat disheartened,
16:41watching the winners on stage.
16:43Once outside,
16:44she could barely hold back tears.
16:46Maria Genrikovna tried to comfort her,
16:49placing a hand on her shoulder,
16:50but Tanya abruptly pulled away,
16:52saying she was fine.
16:54The deputy principal watched her
16:56with a heavy heart.
16:57Suddenly,
16:58a member of the jury approached them
17:00and invited the adults to a banquet
17:01and the children to a disco.
17:04The banquet hall buzzed
17:05with strangers' conversations
17:06and the hollow clinking
17:08of forced laughter.
17:10Tanya sat at the table,
17:11detached and absent,
17:13resting her head in her hands.
17:15Beside her,
17:17feeling every flicker of her tension,
17:19sat Maria Genrikovna.
17:21Seeing her pale, lost face,
17:23she quietly suggested leaving,
17:26going to a restaurant,
17:27finding another Armenian wedding,
17:29doing anything at all.
17:30But Tanya stayed silent,
17:33staring blankly ahead.
17:35Then Maria Genrikovna,
17:36almost in despair,
17:38asked what she could do for her.
17:40Tanya slowly shifted her gaze
17:42to the enormous, untouched cake
17:44decorated with chocolate masks.
17:46I want to eat that mask,
17:48she whispered.
17:50Which one?
17:50Asked Maria Genrikovna.
17:52The sad one or the happy one?
17:55Both,
17:56came the quiet reply.
17:58Without a moment's hesitation,
18:00Maria Genrikovna stood up
18:01and walked across the hall to the cake.
18:04With a gentle,
18:05apologetic smile to the jury members,
18:07she took two chocolate masks
18:09from the fairy tale-like creation.
18:11Under the puzzled stares
18:12of everyone present,
18:13she returned and placed both masks
18:16on Tanya's plate.
18:17Both,
18:18she said.
18:19And Tanya suddenly smiled.
18:21In that absurd,
18:23daring gesture,
18:24she read everything.
18:25Support,
18:26love,
18:27and the readiness
18:28to share in her
18:29every act of rebellion.
18:31They stepped out
18:32onto the dance floor,
18:33where the children
18:34immediately surrounded them,
18:36pulling them into the dance.
18:37But the joy didn't last long.
18:40One of the girls came running,
18:41saying that Anya was crying
18:43bitterly outside.
18:44Everyone,
18:45the children,
18:46Tanya and Maria Genrikovna,
18:48rushed out.
18:49Tanya was the first
18:50to approach her.
18:51What's wrong?
18:53She asked softly.
18:54Through her sobs,
18:55Anya admitted that the day would end,
18:57and it would never come again.
18:59Tanya hugged her,
19:01whispering lines from their play,
19:02and at that moment,
19:04all the children,
19:05as if on cue,
19:06gathered around them,
19:08forming a living,
19:09warm circle of embraces.
19:11A gray,
19:12overcast morning
19:12marked the day of departure.
19:14The children were loading
19:15their bags into the bus.
19:17Tanya stood facing Araik,
19:19Maria Genrikovna's husband,
19:21and smiled.
19:22Maria looked at Tanya,
19:24and for a fleeting moment,
19:25her eyes lit up
19:27with that familiar warmth.
19:28Suddenly,
19:29Tanya spoke up,
19:30her voice bright and clear,
19:32telling Araik how lucky he was
19:34to have such a wonderful wife.
19:36With genuine enthusiasm,
19:38she recalled how much fun
19:40she and Maria Genrikovna
19:41had together,
19:42saying that she didn't even
19:43want to let her go now.
19:45Araik smirked and replied
19:46that Tanya could simply
19:47take his wife for herself.
19:49Tanya perked up immediately,
19:51asking if he wouldn't regret it.
19:53He chuckled and asked
19:54whether she even knew
19:55how much it cost
19:56to maintain his wife.
19:58Tanya paused for a moment,
20:00then asked her
20:01most important question,
20:02Did he even know
20:03what color his wife's eyes were?
20:06Araik only smiled in response.
20:09Maria Genrikovna,
20:10standing beside him,
20:12softly said that Tanya
20:13was just joking.
20:14Araik offered to give Tanya a ride.
20:17Maria Genrikovna,
20:18without uttering a word,
20:19only averted her gaze slightly,
20:21but it was enough.
20:23Tanya understood.
20:24Their goodbye
20:25had to happen here and now.
20:27Catching that silent verdict,
20:29she managed to force out
20:31that she would go
20:31with the children.
20:32As she said goodbye,
20:34Tanya shook Araik's hand
20:36and then turned
20:37to Maria Genrikovna.
20:39Not a handshake,
20:40not a polite nod,
20:41but a gentle,
20:42trembling kiss on the cheek.
20:44The world froze.
20:46Maria Genrikovna stood still,
20:48absorbing that touch,
20:49a touch that was both
20:51a confession
20:51and a farewell.
20:53Then, without a word,
20:54she turned and walked
20:56toward the car.
20:56She didn't look back.
20:58She couldn't allow herself to.
21:00But Tanya did.
21:01She watched them
21:03until they disappeared from view
21:04and only then,
21:06hollow inside,
21:07climbed onto the bus.
21:09The car sped off
21:10as if trying to escape itself.
21:12Loud music filled the cabin,
21:14but it couldn't drown out
21:15the silence that settled
21:16inside Maria Genrikovna's heart.
21:19Her hands clenched
21:20the steering wheel
21:21and her eyes blurred with tears
21:23she refused to let fall.
21:24Taking a slow, steady breath,
21:27she forced herself
21:28to stay composed,
21:29the only thing left for her now.
21:32Tanya sat down on the bus,
21:34put on her headphones,
21:35and stared out the window.
21:37She couldn't hear the music,
21:39only the heavy silence
21:40pressing inside her chest.
21:42She knew it was the end,
21:44the fragile thread
21:45that had bound them
21:46over those few days,
21:48days that had felt
21:49like an entire lifetime,
21:51had finally broken.
21:53In the car,
21:55Maria Genrikovna watched the road
21:57rushing away beneath the wheels,
21:59feeling life slip back
22:01into its familiar routine.
22:02Each passing kilometer
22:04brought almost physical pain.
22:06She knew,
22:07it was forever.
22:08All that remained now
22:09were memories
22:10and the faint,
22:11ghostly trace
22:11of that last kiss on the cheek.
22:13She knew it was the end of the week.
22:13Amen.
