About the film:

"A few days before the New Year, 25-year-old musician Fedor Ozerov returns home after a long journey. Fedor is focused on assembling a band and writing new material. However, he struggles to form a band, as everyone around him is preoccupied with the possibility of a Third World War, which, according to rumors, may start on January 1st. Despite the widespread panic, Fedor remains unconcerned and is determined to work on new songs. However, his plans change when he discovers that his favorite daisy-patterned sweater has gone missing. He believes that this sweater gives him magical songwriting powers, as it did for its former rockstar owner. Fedor embarks on a spiritual journey to retrieve the sweater and write a new song before the New Year."
