The Soviet Union, in 1959, a group of young students disappear in the mountains in circumstances that remain mysterious. From this real event, which continues to make headlines, the Fedorovich/Nikishov duo has created an opus that is bound to become a milestone in Russian fantasy.

USSR, 1959. Corpses are found scattered in the frozen mountains. Who are the victims? What force drove the young people out of their tent on this stormy night? Playing admirably on the possibilities, which have remained open, of these very real news items that continues to haunt Russia, the creators of the brilliant Identification, selected last year at GIFF, are back in competition with this little gem of a fantastic series.
