It took 32 years but eventually they produced a sequel!
It’s now over 30 years later and Zhenya and Nadya from
the original film have gone their separate ways.
Nadya stuck with her
bureaucrat boyfriend Ippolit, married, and had a daughter also called Nadya.
Zhenya married and had a son, Konstantin. Both later divorced.
Now it’s 2007 and Konstantin ends up drunk in a flat
where the younger Nadya finds him.
He is there as part of a convoluted ruse by
his father's old friends to get Zhenya back into the arms of the woman with
whom he shared that magical New Year’s Eve 30 years ago. The waylaid son is the
bait to get Zhenya back to Leningrad, now called St. Petersburg. Romance is
rekindled and a new one forged between the son and the daughter.
