On May 13, 1905, the corpse of one of the richest people in Russia, the manufacturer and philanthropist Savva Morozov, was found. For more than a hundred years, the official version has dominated that the millionaire committed suicide. However, how did the relatives manage to bury the suicide at the Rogozhsky cemetery? It is clear that even such a respected family of Old Believers, to which the Morozovs belonged, would have been completely impossible to do this. So, maybe the elders of the Rogozh community knew something unknown to Russian historians? The authors of the picture question the official version, and conduct their own thorough detective investigation in France and Russia. And they conclude that the fatal love of Savva Morozov was to blame for everything.

For several years, the author has been making film observations of his heroes, peasants from two neighboring villages in the Lipetsk region. One of them, Uncle Vanya, is a poet, a local Kulibin, who builds a starship. The second, Uncle Kolya, wandered through life in an alcoholic stupor, but one day, having experienced a severe shock, he got out onto the “sober” highway. The most remarkable thing about the film is the author's point of view.
