Bucharest, 1988. Nela, a young schoolteacher, takes care of her father, a former colonel with the Securitate \u2013 as he dies. His will is that his body remains to be used by medical science. No one wants his body as the refrigerators at the University aren\u2019t working. Nela leaves for a teaching job in a provincial town. There she meets Mitic\u0103, a doctor at the local hospital, who, like Nela, won\u2019t accept to compromise and is full of dreams and optimism. They disturb everyone by their attitude but they survive the harshness of reality, as if touched by a kind of grace.<\/p>\n<\/div>
