A feature film based on the novella by Yuri Koval, recounting a whimsical and humorous journey aboard a homemade boat through the Vologda region. The picture consists of two parallel storylines. The first follows the adventures of the novellaβs protagonist, whose absurd escapade unexpectedly transforms into a mystical experience amidst the rivers, marshes, and villages of the countryside. The second centers on a theatrical production based on Kovalβs book β staged by a group of students β which reveals the backstory: how the bookβs hero came to yearn to break free from Moscow and retreat far away from everyone β including his friends β deep into the heart of nature.
