Plot synopsis
Sonya is an orphan abandoned by her parents. She was born with a severe illness and cannot walk. But a kind woman Natasha took her from the shelter and began to do everything to get the girl back on her feet. One day Sonya said that she really wanted to see the Old Believer hermit Agafya Lykova. There was no way to lead a child through the taiga, a road that a healthy adult could barely walk. But this was the beginning of our story of love, faith and humanity.
