In a Karakalpak town, an old movie theater is living out its last days. Once upon a time, this was the shore of the Aral Sea, where life was vibrant and the theater flourished. However, with the drying up of the Aral Sea, the country has also changed. The current owner of the theater, a projectionist nicknamed Fellini, is deeply devoted to cinema. His wife, however, does not understand or support his unprofitable passion. One day, a film crew arrives in the town, and Fellini helps them in any way he can, even appearing in an episode.
