Plot of the film Time for Thought (1982 film):
What to do if the feelings have already passed, and life together has become just a formality? And this is in the best case, and in the worst case, just a nightmare with quarrels and grievances. In this case, you can simply separate and not torment each other. However, such a decision is also difficult to make, because it will cause suffering to loved ones: parents, friends, relatives. But the children who suffer the most in this situation are those who are equally attached to both parents. And if you take into account housing and everyday issues associated with divorce, then not everyone decides to do it.
But the main character of the film, Alla, decided to get a divorce. She was already over thirty and the time for reflection was coming to an end. Her new chosen one, Igor, a serious and balanced man, was the complete opposite of her husband Andrey.
However, she understood perfectly well that her seven-year-old son Seryozha would suffer from her and Andrey's separation. Andrey understood this and used his son to try to get his wife back.
The occasion was Seryozha's next birthday, to which they usually invited relatives and close friends. In order not to traumatize the boy, Andrey suggested not changing anything this year. And he even told all his friends and relatives that he and Alla had made peace. However, Alla understood that a broken vase could not be glued back together, and even this familiar friendly atmosphere could not change anything...
