Film Production News: The Right to Betray

Cast: Violetta Davydovskaya, Alexey Anishchenko, Kristina Arabina, Sergey Pleshakov and others.

Gynecologist-reproductologist Olga Linnikova is a "shoemaker without shoes". She has helped many women find the happiness of motherhood. But she herself cannot get pregnant from her beloved husband Pavel - the couple has genetic incompatibility. Pavel, who raised Olga's son from her first marriage, Sanya, is obsessed with the desire to have his own, biological child. Olga does everything to make his dream come true.

Olga's attending physician, careerist Svetlana, is trying her best to help her. And for good reason. They are both applying for a leadership position at the clinic. Svetlana hopes that Olga will go on maternity leave, and she will get the coveted position of head of the department.

And so another attempt at IVF turns out to be successful. Pavel is happy. But Olga meets a nine-year-old girl Nastya at the garbage dump, who practically lives on the street. Nastya is sick, she has a fever. Olga provides her with first aid - as a doctor and simply a normal person, she cannot do otherwise. After this, Olga's temperature rises. She loses the baby. Pavel is sure - it's all because of Nastya. He forbids Olga to even think about the girl. But Olga secretly continues to help Nastya and becomes attached to her.

When Nastya is taken to an orphanage from her alcoholic mother, Olga decides to adopt the girl. Pavel is categorically against it and puts Olga before a choice: either him or Nastya. Svetlana takes advantage of the spouses' quarrel to destroy both Olga's career and her marriage.
