In this virtually wordless story, a young man from a small Kazakh village migrates to the big city. Initially sure of himself, he meets a young woman that he feels he could easily fall in love with. Later, during a showing of Woyzeck, he sees her again quite accidentally and realizes that he has already given his heart to her. As his relationship with the girl blossoms, in his sleeping dreams, he imagines he has returned to his home village and he is alone on a carnival ride while his mother watches him on.
