A cable car connects a village in the Georgian mountains with a small town in the valley. Iva started working with the cable cars as a conductor and is now in charge of dispatching the gondolas. While one of the gondolas goes up to the village, the other one heads down to the valley. Halfway through the journey, the gondolas meet every half hour. This is exactly the moment when Iva and Nino, the conductor of the other gondola, meet each time. Little by little, they surprise each other and exchange gifts. At first, only collegial greetings are exchanged, but over time, a flirtation develops. What follows is great love and stress with the boss.
