Dmitry Andreich Olenin, hoping to escape the emptiness of his privilege, joins the army and heads to the Caucasus. There, among the foothills, he will meet the Cossacks: a people who believe they are in complete harmony with the land. In their company, he will hunt, drink, fall in love, and gradually begin to understand that between people, between cultures, there is often a space that cannot be crossed...
