Kseniya is a 23-year-old Moscow-based pastry chef whose life becomes a delicate balance between a new romance and a family storm. As she threads together a budding relationship, her seven-year-old son, Artyom, clings to a vivid inner world to cope with the pain of his parents’ separation. In his imagination, he transforms into a superhero called Kosmoboy, pairing up with a robot named Edger Beroev to wage battles against a colossal, looming foe he calls Mrakovlast (the Darklord).
