Semyon sleeps every day on the train that takes him to prison. There he puts on a robe and tries to quickly get rid of the routine medical work with prisoners in order to return to his personal routine, everyday life. An emergency at work suddenly interferes with his viscous existence, forcing Semyon to choose - to compromise with his conscience or preserve his humanity.
"I have always been interested in the conflict between a person's moral values and social norms. Like the main character of my film, people can feel one thing, say another, and do something completely opposite. But around these words and actions there are moments of silence. It is this silence that allows us to come as close as possible to the truth."
