Description
Synopsis:
Danya is a charismatic and eccentric young man who is having difficulties communicating with the opposite sex. At 24, he is still a virgin and dreams of finding real love. At a dance class, our hero meets a girl who shows a mutual interest in him. They come very close to having a sexual encounter, but overexcitement prevents Danya from parting with his innocence.
After his dance partner flees from his apartment, the young man decides to change his life at any cost. He turns to a sexologist and psychologist, meets people in nightclubs, takes part in TV shows and even organises his own casting sessions – all in order to find the girl of his dreams and understand himself.
