Told via flashbacks, this is the tale of how a young woman found herself through years of struggle. After falling pregnant at fifteen, she is forced to marry her loser boyfriend, and they head for a dead-end existence in suburbia.

Isma Manitsa (28): A touching yet realistic movie depicting not only 'real' life in The States but here too.

Vassily Neviadomski (26): The film was something is between black comedy and sad melodrama. It would be quite all right for art circle but I am afraid will be too depressing for most viewers.
