An ordinary engineer named Alexander, who lived in a post-Soviet city in the early 90's, just in the midst of the economic crisis, as well as a 12-year-old girl Christina with a difficult fate. He killed a man by negligence. She was a witness. Fearing responsibility, Alexander hides all traces of his crime and persuades the girl to remain silent about what she saw. However, in turn, she asks Alexander to help her solve her own problems. At first, this seems like a good deal to Alexander, but later on things went all wrong.(Storyline via IGDB)
