A man can feel and suffer, he loves and lives out his destiny, even if that destiny takes away the dearest things in his life: the people closest to him. It can take them away cruelly and suddenly, as happens to the heroes of this film. It can take them away along with all meaning of life and any desire to live. It takes them away together with the rest of the world. But they are not ready to accept the losses: they challenge their destiny, declare war and even overcome human limit in that fight... But in their own way, they win!

* 3 prizes at the “Kinotavr” Open Russian Film Festival, Sochi
