    Brief synopsis

    ‘True male friendship’ – this is what they say about Vitali and Łukasz. They have graduated from an Orthodox seminar and keep living together filling their life with music, books and philosophical disputes. But when you want to be ordained as an Orthodox priest, you have to get married first. The family living in Belarus cannot wait until Vitali finds a wife and becomes a priest. His friend, who has had a girlfriend for many years, is not into marriage either. Will the bond between the protagonists turn out stronger than their religious obligations?
