Plot synopsis
The authors of the film are opening to the audience the world of the Siberian taiga, where strong characters with a special spiritual way of life live. The country projectionist Timur together with his wife tries to keep going the old club, stubbornly returning favorite movies to the country screen. He is convinced there is a deep connection between the historic heroes on the screen and the natives of these harsh lands. They have always been capable of a feat – in the past as well as now.
