== Plot ==
Administration of an contemporary secondary school invites deacon Alexey to talk students about the Bible and Orthodoxy. Realizing that the dialogue with teens who are willing to argue and doubt in religious truths, is not coming, the deacon decides to tell them from his experience a story, which happened with him in the same age.
End of 70's - early 80's. Usual 11 years old schoolkids<!-- schoolchildren, students?--> with their teen notions of good and friendship. It was in this environment that a dramatic story of Valera, an autistic boy unlike all other children, unfolds. Due to his deviation he is an outcast in the children society. Alyosha, like all his mates, mocks Valera at every opportunity. But once an event happens occures which first makes Alyosha look quite otherwise at Valera, and then in his understanding of himself and the world in whole the crucial turn comes.
