Plot synopsis
The serial killer Zhanna Dronova, nicknamed “Female Mantis”, is serving a sentence in a high security prison after admitting eight especially cruel murders. Zhanna killed only men — pedophiles, rapists, domestic abusers, and unfaithful husbands. When she finds out that she has a copycat, the woman offers the police her help, under two conditions. First: she will leave the colony for the period of the investigation. Second: her son Denis will be involved, who has not communicated with his mother for the past 20 years.
