LatestA youth TV novel about school life. The situations that the characters find themselves in are familiar to every teenager, and the problems that the characters are trying to solve are of concern to everyone: how to deal with unrequited love (and is it necessary?), how to resolve a conflict with teachers or classmates, how to find a common language with parents, how to skip a physical education lesson, how, finally, to wipe the two in the diary without consequences for school life.
