Vaarwel Pavel plot

Farewell Pavel is set in two cities. In Rotterdam we follow the Russian reporter Alexej Petrov. He stays in a poor hotel for an investigation into Russian ships that have been detained and writes an article about trafficking in women. His contact with a Russian prostitute gets him into trouble when he tries to arrange a fake passport for her. While Alexej in the west becomes entangled in a criminal web, in St. Petersburg Alexej's 14-year-old son Pavel longs for his father and takes his first steps on the love path. The events in both cities run almost parallel, but are told from different time perspectives. Over time, a shift occurs. For Pavel, who is on his way to adulthood, time moves faster and faster, while for Alexej, who feels more and more threatened, time seems to stand still.
