In the small Armenian town of Berd, the builder Simon dies. He lived a long and very eventful life. Simon is known to the townspeople not only as an excellent bricklayer and roofer, but also as a womanizer, who received the nickname "gentleman", from the Armenian "jan", "my soul". Four lovers of Simon come to the coffin, four women whom he once made happy - Sylvia, Eliza, Sophia and Susanna. Simon's wife Melania reconciles with former rivals, and together they remember Simon, a man who knew how to give women not only gifts, but also a little happiness. Simon receives forgiveness from all his women, and they put in his coffin those memorable gifts that he once gave them. Life goes on.
