Today in Russia there are over seven thousand churches in disrepair. The dilapidated churches and chapels are examples of the architecture of the past centuries, amazing in terms of artistic characteristics, they are the most important phenomenon of material and spiritual culture. The main character of the film, Anna Korob, has been searching for lost shrines for many years. With her research work, she attracts more and more people to the problem of preserving the cultural and historical heritage of Russia, protecting the common spirit and symbol of the nation.

In the Apsheronsky district of the Krasnodar Territory, among the majestic Caucasus Mountains and impenetrable forests, small villages were lost. They are connected to the rest of the world only by a thin thread of narrow-gauge railway winding through the gorges, and this is the only way back and forth. A small old trolley railcar, nicknamed by the locals "Matrix", every day delivers food, fuel and other benefits of civilization. People who, for one reason or another, prefer loneliness and unity with nature to noisy city life make their journey on it.
