Description

A certain Kostyleva, who was fired (cut) from her job, threatens to commit suicide. Her colleague suggests cutting him. The self-sacrifice was misunderstood by the wife of this employee. Out of jealousy, she decides to leave her husband and leave home. And he suddenly finds out that a grandfather is coming from America to visit, whom (what if he is a millionaire!) must be greeted properly - it is not every day that relatives come from the USA. The grandfather arrives in an antediluvian car to "die cheerfully" in his homeland, in Russia. They bought a coffin and a plot in the cemetery, but problems arose with death. It turned out that life is just beginning. It was in vain that the grandfather gave all the money to a sanatorium for homeless dogs.
