Out in the wild, Mikhail, a pudgy, decent middle aged man is out hunting with his trusted dog. Suddenly a young man emerges from the woods pursued by three heavily armed gangsters. The young man hijacks Mikhail's car in order to escape. Now the hunter becomes the hunted. Mikhail has no choice but to go with him. The two men are radically different to one another, but they are forced together by their will to survive, to get back to civilisation and to escpae the savage gangsters. But at what cost? Every man has a different response to fear and a different moral threshold. The first feature by actor Yuri Biykov, produced by super-mogul Alexei Uchitel is a tight, superbly performed crime thriller.
