Experiencing Interruptions?

In Vain

The family of Yana and Yura is on the brink of a catastrophe. Yana has a terminal stage of stomach cancer. Together with Youra, they share a tiny Moscow flat with their 16-year-old daughter.
Few would suspect them of anything wrong, but several years ago, both managed to give up heroin. Soon they got hooked on a new synthetic drug called Alpha. That’s put everything they had on stake again. The end has never been so close but why are they so powerless than ever before?
