The Greenhouse Effect

Rita is a naïve 18-year-old from the sticks who has come to Moscow to meet up with the man who impregnated her a few months earlier. Unfortunately, his name and address was written on a piece of paper in her luggage, which was promptly stolen upon her arrival in Moscow. Thus, she is a bit at loose ends, and going back home is clearly not an option. She is befriended by street-kid Ernest, an irrepressible kid of 14 or so, who lives on his own in a greenhouse. He is saving up so that he and an older friend "Greek" can go live with the latter's grandparents in Greece.
