The action takes place at the beginning of "perestroika". A young girl, an employee of the LOMO association, an incorrigible idealist, endures a serious unequal struggle with the management of the plant for the ideals in which she blindly believes. She is sent to a psychiatric hospital, they say that her "straightforward character" is an illness, that she has "truth-seeking syndrome". The character of the heroine is ambiguous, her views and actions cause a complex reaction from those around her - from support to complete hostility. In 1989, the film was awarded the main prize "Golden Dragon" of the Krakow Film Festival and the prize of the Leipzig Film Festival. In 1990, the film "White Crow" received prizes at film festivals in Spain and Italy.
