Plot synopsis
These people seem to have everything they want: money and comfort, connections and power. They have everything but no certainty about the sustainability of what they have.
Despite having received a serious warning, the professional Killer Felix, nicknamed "Brillant", continued to carry out his lucrative mission: to kill the one his client called the "oilman".
Brillant was arrested but he did not stay in prison for long, he fled with a guard. However, he must convince himself that the warning was very serious... The "oilman" will not be forgiven.
Then begins a dangerous pursuit. Felix has, in all and for all, 24 hours to reach his sacred goal: a distant island under the sun where his beloved awaits him, whom he will join with the money from the last order.
The Chalamov brothers have, in all and for all, 24 hours to kill Felix. And if the youngest of the brothers, between two doses of cocaine, does not really realize the danger of the pursuit, his older brother knows very well that afterwards, they will never be able to return to the comfortable dacha where, in front of a table covered with lace, their mother takes care of the jams.
After 24 hours, however, they will find themselves at the dacha, but it is under the threat of a revolver that they will sit down at the table.
