Sasha Kovalev was born with a congenital disease. His father has chosen, as it seemed to

him, the only correct way to put his son on his feet - treat him like a healthy person. "He is not

a patient - he has temporary difficulties". The boy had to not only serve himself without assistance, but also had to do household duties. His father sent him to an ordinary school, where the child on crutches was the object of continuous mockeries. The boy got on his feet, but the therapy of his father caused the son to hate him. Having graduated from the school, Sasha left his home and stopped any communication with his father. For 12 years, Alexander Kovalev became a successful business coach, who brought hundreds of businesses out of crisis. Often by radical methods. And one day he received an order, which gave an unexpected opportunity to solve his personal question - to get even with his father...

Watch trailer

Folk wisdom says as the tree, so the fruit, but our heroes are ready to argue with this: 10-year-old Venus and 10-year- old Max do not look like their single parents as if they were replaced in the birthing home. Venus, a cheerful rebel, delivers a bunch of troubles to his correct and slightly boring mother lawyer Ulyana. Max, on the contrary, is forced to behave like an adult and take care of the disorganized and infantile father of Kostya, who is far from reality and devotes most of his time to the Internet blog. When the tension becomes unbearable, both couples seek help from the family therapist, who gives them unexpected advice: parents need to change their children, live with another child, in order to understand their own better.
