Plot synopsis
The land of the Fly Agaric is not marked on any map of the world. It is the place where shamans who have taken Amanita muscaria or simply red amanita arrive. During his intoxication, the shaman is visited by spirits who take the form of attractive naked young girls who draw him into their world, where they show him all sorts of wonders and, in a symbolic and allegorical form, answer the fundamental questions of existence. In search of themselves, people leave for this country by taking a train from a Moscow station. They are driven by the desire to take a look beyond the border of what we call the real world, to access the sacred mysteries.
This film is about the generation of these men who are looking for themselves in the nightmares born of their own brains.
