Colonel Valentin Lebedev [Oleg Menshikov] leads Moscow’s high-stakes response to a sudden, meteor-driven disaster when a mysterious alien craft crashes into the city, triggering fear, confusion, and a tight military lockdown. The craft belongs to Hekon [Rinal Mukhametov], a visitor from a technologically advanced humanoid race who comes incognito to study Earth, with his ship Sol damaged and his mission clouded in secrecy.
