Synopsis

A mysterious man named Dmitriy Zorin arrives at the climbers camp one night, two days late, and immediately irritates everyone around him. No one knows who he is or why he's there, but he and a group of ten enthusiasts are set to ascend to the mountain's summit under the supervision of three guides. The experienced guides know the weather is turning bad and it's best to cancel the trip, but their desire to earn money is stronger. On the way to the 5,200-meter peak, they face blizzards, avalanches, wild animals, bitter cold, and conflict. But danger is not the main obstacle for Zorin and the others, because the closer they get to the summit, the more obvious it becomes: there's no escaping yourself; it's time to face your fears and the mistakes of your past.
