Plot synopsis
Victor Gulyaev, a veteran of war in Afghanistan, gave up everything in the city: his flat, work, family. He took over a plot of land on the bank of a river in the backwoods of Perm region and became a farmer. He went away from people in hope to find “full freedom”. But people don’t leave him alone: he has to prepare teenagers for military service or to bring up a nephew- kleptomaniac. How can one become absolutely free if he has to respond for everything even for what happened in Afghan?
