Two Muscovites go on a trip to Karelia and disappear without a trace in an endless, dense forest. Each attempt to get out turns into a new threat. The forest seems to breathe, watch and does not want to let go... It becomes clear: the Forest lives by its own rules, which there is no time to understand - without food and water, the girls will not last long. In the meantime, one strange family moves into an abandoned village house. Strangers are not welcome here. After all, they used to live in the Forest.

Literature teacher Tatyana Ivaschenko finds a strange story describing a murder in her late father's papers. The story is clearly amateurish, but it reminds Tatyana of a scene from Tolstoy's "The Kreutzer Sonata." Tatyana turns to her father's colleagues, who worked for the Investigative Committee, of all places.
