Two scientists: the biologist-geneticist (Yevgeny Vesnik) and the programmer Kostya (Sergey Bekhterev) wish to create a cyborg-superman to fight against the mafia. However, in the programming process a mistake happens: instead of superman they got super-Manya: the robot is given the form of a female glamour model about whom the programmer secretly fantasized.

However, Manya (Yuliya Menshova) despite her contrasting appearance is ready to carry out the initial plan, i.e., to combat world mafia and racketeers. And she successfully fulfills the task: neither bullets or by land-to-air missiles hurt her. However the mafia finds out, how to defeat the crime fighters: a real pin-up girl is presented to Kostya and he forgets about "Super Manya", and Manya is unable to cope with the latest achievements of the scientific progress. Nevertheless, everything ends successfully, crime is destroyed, but unfortunately this means the ens of the execution of the superwoman's program and she is about to be retired. The creators brighten up the last days of her existence with a deserved vacation.
