Kirill Semenov

A man must survive a prison where hardened criminals battle to the death for the warden's entertainment.

Gosha is a trucker who carries goods to the remote Northern parts of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia). Together with food, he brings burnt vodka to the villages, feeding the local population with low-quality alcohol. So, on the next flight, it is profitable, but unfairly exchanges vodka for meat. His greed leads to the fact that he decides to go back to the city alone. On the way, his car breaks down. And at a distance of hundreds of kilometers-not a single living soul...

40-year-old provincial Natalya Nikitina has been living in St. Petersburg for the seventh year. She works as a nurse for ailing old people and endures their countless quirks and humiliations. Once in her life, a new friend appears - a masseuse named Love, who plunges Natalia into the abyss of bright and risky adventures in search of love and happiness.

Yakutia, the first half of the 19th century. Bishop Ambrose goes to the snowy steppe to the newly baptized Tungus, accompanied by the disgraced monk Cyriacus, who once refused to baptize "foreigners" en masse. On the way, they are overtaken by a blizzard. The pagan guide Harpoon saves the bishop's life, and the newly baptized Stepan throws Cyriacus to freeze. The death of the elder becomes a miracle of unity: unbaptized Tunguses themselves come to the faith of "Cyriacus", and Ambrose finally sees the truth — about the equality of all before God and love, which knows no difference between baptized and pagans.

Callousness and indifference... When they are around, trouble happens. Everyone needs help sometime. The outstretched hand of a friend in time, the understanding and support of loved ones, the love and sympathy of others. This film is a man's cry for help that goes unheard and unanswered because it cannot permeate the mountain walls.
