Невелика редакција од 13 новинара прославила је у четвртак по подне, са важним гостима, велики јубилеј: 70 година откако се 26. марта 1943, на радио апаратима, уз повремено крчање, први пут чуло „Овде Вашингтон, Глас Америке”.

Тако је започео програм намењен Југославији, на врхунцу Другог светског рата, када је радио био главни извор вести са широког светског фронта и глас наде да ће снаге добра победити силе мрака. А кад је победа извојевана, Глас Америке је добродошао иза „гвоздене завесе”.

Šta se sve na ovom svetu promenilo u četvrtak u jedan popodne, kada je sa beogradskog aerodroma poleteo avion, jedan od mnogih tog dana? Ko to zna. Ali jesu život četvorogodišnje Marijane, iz Kraljeva, i njene nove majke, Amerikanke Linde Rahal. Njih dve će posle nekoliko presedanja završiti u glavnom gradu Sjedinjenih Američkih Država, novom domu za Marijanu i, od petka, potpuno drugačijem za Lindu.

Kada bi o njihovoj sudbini neko snimao film, po scenariju kojem je pisac nepotreban, jer ga je ispisao sam život, prva scena odigrala bi se dve i po godine ranije u Lindinom stanu u Vašingtonu.
