A psychological mystery where five young urbanites encounter mounting supernatural dread at a remote monastery, their escape becoming a descent into doubt and inescapable reckoning.
Faced with insurmountable problems, five young Muscovites flee to a monastery near the half-abandoned village of Topi.
