Provocative story of a girl named Manya Ukrainka. Manya is an Ukrainka. A typical girl from this country situated between West and East. She is beautiful, bright, sensual and looking for true love. But life has many obstacles. She grew up poor in a remote village, surrounded by an amazing landscape, but also superstition and exploitation. Her dream is to create a perfect life for herself. To achieve that, she has to go away: to Hongkong eventually, this bustling metropolis with all those successful people. Manya has to meet many men, she sleeps in the most expensive hotels, relaxes on the most beautiful beaches, and has sex, sometimes amazing, sometimes awful. She also meets her true love - but can she sustain to be with this man? Will romance be more important than a safe haven? And will she compromise when she realises she has to make another big decision?
