As a child, Vanya Revzin was his mother’s biggest hope — a smart boy who she believed would have a bright future. But years later, his life has fallen apart: he loses his job, his wife leaves him, and he feels like he has wasted his talent.

Believing that being honest brought him nothing, Vanya makes a risky choice. Using fake documents and a big lie, he starts a new life by pretending to be an eighteen-year-old genius.
