Ivan is indifferent to many things and doesn't care about his work at all. Once, Ivan became acquainted with the professor's daughter, Kaja. Kaja was very dissatisfied with the concept of life of the older generation and got along well with Ivan. The professor was disgusted by his daughter's association with people like Ivan.
