Because of her enthusiasm for the group t.A.T.u. she gets to know Lana Starkova in a chat, a Russian of her age from a small town in the province. The girls meet in Moskva, to go together to a concert of the beloved group, and find themselves pulled into a whirl of unbelievable events. A "mirror" of the night life waits for them with all it's glamour and dangers, adventures at the edge of magical fairy-tales and nightly horror, tests of friendship and resistance. In spite of all conflicts, betrayals and disappointments, the girls will find the power to resist the wrong values and open new feelings and talents in themselves.

Sincerity, creative work and love will lead Janey and Lana to a meeting with t.A.T.u., but later to the fulfillment of their own dreams for another much better life. The story will end with a bright happy-end, a grandios concert in front of a huge auditorium.
