A family's bonds are shaken by the sudden reappearence of the son's biological mother, with whom the father, unbeknownst to his wife, had an affair while working in Russia. An informal custody battle does little to answer the questions raised, and thus, in the end, the child`s welfare emerges as the primary concern.
