Svetlana "Jessica" Sergeevna Gilkova finds little to call her own in Russia, 1946, except "a beautiful name," which she acquired from American cinema permitted during WWII, and a fashionable dress she buys for her twentieth birthday. Head-strong yearnings dare her to aspire to become a fashion designer despite Marxistsko-Leninskaya teaching that a comrade's dreams are not allowed.

As threats close in on her, Jessica strives to trust the traditional faith of her parents and Abbot Konstantin against the atheism of her generation.
