This film tells the story of two main characters: elderly Frenchman Anatole and young Kazakh Abai, who by fate and providence met in an unexpected situation and together found a solution to their life problems. Anatole Lerbier, an outstanding specialist in sound and sound recording, once found himself in the steppes of Kazakhstan in his childhood. A tragic event brought him together with a simple Kazakh named Eraly, who was able to reveal the most significant secrets of life to the little Frenchman.

The little Frenchman grew up and became a world-famous figure in the wonderful world of sounds - and he always remembered that he received this gift in the steppes of Kazakhstan. Almost fifty years later, Anatole Lerbier found himself in Kazakhstan again - and discovered a new strong state, the majestic capital Astana. And his gift resounded with renewed force. But at first, Anatole had to go through new trials - and in this difficult path, a young man named Abai helped him.

The film's script was written in the genre of romantic drama by the well-known French screenwriter Vincent Ravalec with the participation of the young talented Kazakhstani screenwriter Daniyar Kumisbayev.
