Gathered for the reading of Israeli millionaire Michael Golber's will, his children and grandchildren learn of a strange stipulation: before lawyer Rubin can read the deceased's last will, they must listen to the entire diary of a certain Mikus, translated from Latvian to Hebrew. In other words, they, busy people, are being asked to spend a ton of time trying to figure out what some guy from faraway Latvia, someone they've never heard of before, wrote! Why?! But that's not the only surprise: a stranger from Russia shows up for the reading. And on the table appears an antique box, oozing mystery... The heirs, and readers along with them, learn a lot: about how Latvian pilots conquered the skies in the 1930s, about the dramatic events that unfolded in Europe and the Middle East on the eve of World War II. But above all, this is a story about great Friendship and Love, which proved stronger than hatred, danger, time and distance.
