Nadya Klyueva is a hard-working engineer at a Moscow design bureau, kind, a little drab and still single. Then she meets her old school friend Susanna, a confident sociologist with a husband and a theory for everything.

Susanna decides to turn Nadya into the most charming and attractive woman around, using psychology, autotraining and carefully planned tricks. Their target is Volodya, the office heartthrob. The plan works, more or less, but Nadya starts to wonder whether she wants to be someone else at all.
