Synopsis
In late 1950s Moscow, during the height of the Cold War, a cultural battle erupts between traditional Soviet conformity and rebellious youth embracing American influences. Mels, a 20-year-old Communist, finds himself shocked by these 'hipsters' until he meets Polly, falls for her, and joins their ranks. He starts wearing bright, black-market clothes, adopts an American nickname, and begins playing the saxophone while wailing along to forbidden jazz music.
