St. Petersburg, 2019. Former prima ballerina Natalia Leonova returns to the city where her rise and fall began. Two years have passed since the accident that divided her life into "before" and "after," and now the once-famous dancer of the Mariinsky and Bolshoi Theaters, who conquered Paris and New York, resembles a pitiful version of herself.

The ghosts of her former life haunt her: her withdrawn mother and two talented dancers who played important roles in the heroine's drama, the gentle Alexander and the arrogant Dmitry. The latter makes Natasha a tempting offer: to return to the world of ballet.

But what will she have to sacrifice for her dream?
Natasha is once again caught up in a whirlwind of ruthless ambitions and hopes.
