The drama is just a gem, and its first half is a masterpiece without exaggeration. The direction and production are distinguished by grace, delicacy, attention to detail, and the acting is excellent. But even taking into account the declared genre of black comedy, the storyline of the relationship between the main characters and their husband's parents causes tension and makes you think. The commandment "Honor thy father and thy mother", which for thousands of years has been the basis of culture, spiritual and moral development, does not work here. In fact, we see a family conflict of generations, which ends with the fact that a well-mannered and educated adult son and daughter, who grew up in luxury, abandon their parents without regret. And it doesn't matter that this happens under the influence of others. Children do not recognize that despite the fact that parents, like all people, have their own shortcomings and weaknesses, it is still necessary to compromise, strive for mutual understanding, respect and love. The last shots of the drama in the house of the protagonist's parents, built in the century before last with servants in an archaic form, carry the director's bitter message to the audience. The old family order, in which even for adult children there are no other concepts than "must" and "must", is being replaced by a new one, based on mutual respect, goodwill and the dictates of the heart; And the parents, clinging to the old, are left with only loneliness and heartache.
