In the past 70 years, Interdom, an elite boarding school in the former Soviet Union, educated children from all five continents in the communist ideology. They were children from conflict areas or children of political leaders. They all have one experience in common: the collapse of communism has altered the direction of their predetermined fates. After 14 years they meet again in Russia for the school?s 70th anniversary. The film reflects the events of world politics from a very personal perspective.
