Eight‑grader Petya Kopeikin, slight and unremarkable in appearance, constantly finds himself in the center of attention. He is noble, witty, well read and a talented poet. Secretly in love with classmate Masha Goroshkina, he learns she is infatuated with the new student Kolya Kristallov. When Masha asks Petya to deliver a love note to Kolya, he selflessly helps the rival win her heart, proving that courage and honor—like those of Cyrano de Bergerac in Edmond Rostand’s play—still live on in modern life.
