Russian entrepreneur Victor goes with a delegation to New York and meets a girl at the<br />

diagnosed with terminal illness. It turns out that later Anastasia met Nikolai who brought<br />
her to the USA and spent all his fortune on her treatment. Anastasia survived and gave<br />
birth to a daughter Marina (the girl at the airport). Meeting Anastasia after so many years,<br />
