Patients of the resuscitator Mikhailov are people who tried to commit suicide. Veronika, a young journalist and sociologist, often visits the hospital where the hero works. Natasha, Mikhailov's wife, guesses that her husband is in love with another woman. She is jealous and increasingly feels her loneliness.

The daughter of the hero of the film urgently needs the help of a qualified doctor. He has the cherished address in his hands. The one to whom he is already rushing across the city recognizes him immediately. But now she's an obstetrician—gynecologist, and she's going to have a hard night.
