This intriguing mixture of melodrama and politics is not divided into three parts; the title instead refers to three female characters whose lives intersect in a small town in northern Uzbekistan during the difficult days following World War II. The first is an old woman trapped in a forced marriage; the second is a schoolteacher imposing progress on the remote region; the third, and most important, is Khalima (Kambarova), an illiterate but determined young woman who resolves to build her own house without either her husband's or the state's approval. The film's harsh vision of life in postwar Uzbekistan, as well as its ambivalent attitude toward the conflicting demands of individualism and collectivism, made it the object of official disapproval.

Торговец мясом — профессия еще недавно культовая. А теперь — самая обычная. Настройщик рояля — специальность во все времена уникальная и почти никому ненужная. Проститутка, казалось бы, дело другое. Дело всегда нужное, чуть ли не престижное. Но и она, подобно другим героям нового фильма, придумывает себе более актуальное на сегодня ремесло.
