synopsis
The story is about two women: the 30-year old Claudia, who works in a travel agency and takes Russian lessons at night, and Olga, an Ukranian girl.
Claudia's life is quiet and monotonous and she got used to her day-by-day routine.
One night, at the Russian course a new teacher arrives. His name is Boris, he has Ukranian origins, he is handsome and brilliant. Slowly Boris and Claudia become attracted by one another.
School is over and Claudia starts to plan a holiday in Greece with her friend Sonia and her boyfriend.
But at the end of July Boris reappears. He asks Claudia to help him in finding a place to stay for his Ukranian cousin, who is coming to Italy in search for a job. Claudia hesitates but finally accepts to put her up for few days. Olga arrives and, after a short perdiod of mutual suspicion, a sense of complicity begins to grow between the two women. Claudia begins to reconsider her life thanks to Olga's natural behaviour.
Only few days before her departure for Greece, Claudia doesn't find Olga at home. She waits and waits with growing pain but Olga does not come back...
