Plot summary
In Ukraine, a teacher named Nadia puts together a group that works for the acceptance of LGBTQ+ people. A family with hostile views of gay people learns that taking part brings a payment, and after some hesitation agrees to sign up. The arrangement keeps them for a full day with the group's members: Vasyl, Zenyk, a beer fan, Diana, an actress, and Denys, who is aggressive. The hours pass in games that use humor to put prejudice on display and to encourage empathy. Equality, gender discrimination and the wish to fulfill oneself come up as the group plays.
