The Art of Communicating with Animals and People (2013)
The life of 30-year-old Nastya is divided into two parts: a world of constant tension and the struggle to survive in the metropolis threatens her inner peace and emotional balance — Nastya is passionate about horseback riding. An internal conflict is brewing, the contradictions are obvious, but Nastya prefers to ignore them, escaping from her problems to the stable. Until “that very day” arrives. “To find your place in life” — it sounds so simple, yet proving it in reality is so difficult.
