The film is a reflection on the nature of the charm inherent in St. Petersburg, which never ceases to affect residents and visitors. The city forces those who find themselves in it to rise in their thoughts about it and about life to a philosophical level. St. Petersburg still remains mysterious, undeciphered and therefore endlessly attractive.
