After months of exhausting trench warfare, most of Major Belyaev's battalion was destroyed. The area is ruled by German aces snipers. Hope for replenishment collapses when the convoy, in which the Soviet snipers were traveling, falls under a German airstrike. A handful of soldiers and a young hunter from Yakutia, Yegor Cheerin, survive.

A heinous crime is committed in a small remote Russian village. Police officer Afonya is a prime suspect. The locals are ready to take matters into their own hands. Investigator Sirditov faces a difficult task: he must find out all of the facts of this case before the villagers decide to execute their own justice. This Yakuti film was made in the Republic of Sakha.
