Spoilers ahead
Three years after the stash-keeper Evgeniy Tkachuk vanished with gang money, rumors spread that he’s alive and has been spotted in three distant cities: Saint Petersburg, Novosibirsk, and Rostov. The crime boss Batya dispatches his three “sons”—Senior, Middle, and Roman Mikhailov—to track him down and uncover the truth, no matter what it takes. In Novosibirsk, Senior earns a wary ally in a local Aleksey Inglevich, a dwarf with a sharp talent for locating people. Their pursuit threads through shuttered, snow-dusted streets, empty warehouses, and frozen wastelands, until they stumble into a party of revelers wearing elaborate costumes, hinting that nothing in this case will be straightforward.
