SYNOPSIS

Martha (8 years) and little Linda (4 years) need their aunt for a short period of time. Girls' parents have gone elsewhere to earn living for the family. On meeting her first live "terrorist" - the aunt Una, Martha starts learning the secrets of the great art of compromise. She is still convinced that people's words should conform with their actions. The chosen new tactics reveal wonderful things to Martha.
