Everyone loves a good rom-com, but sometimes you want something a bit more realistic, something that's easier to relate to.

From feel-good coming-of-age narratives to stories of loss and finding oneself, we hope this program gets your heart racing and pining to feel the highs of lows of love yet again.

Sasha is very pedantic and knows what she wants in life. One day she decides that she is ready for a serious relationship, she meets a guy, his name is also Sasha (Sanya). They are completely different, but this doesn’t prevent them from falling in love with each other and creating a common life. However, after some time, their different biorhythms and Sanya’s reluctance to adapt to his girlfriend’s usual lifestyle prompts her to end this relationship. Sanya learns about her intention and for the first time in his life decides to take everything into his own hands and offers her "life on schedule". His plan spells out all the smallest details, even the number of minutes per day for hugging, the system also contains fines for deviating from the plan. Soon, such a lifestyle changes not only him, but Sasha herself. Is it possible to love on a schedule?
