The events that will be discussed in the film took place in one of the regions of Russia about three years ago. One evening, Ekaterina Nikolaevna was switching TV channels, trying to find some quiet movie, but accidentally lingered on criminal news, which she had never watched. The plot described in detail the history of the detention of the girl. They showed a video of her interrogation, the presenter described in detail what she was accused of. The criminal news host, as always, cheerfully announced that the protagonist of the story was detained by operatives while selling drugs. Ekaterina Nikolaevna unexpectedly felt pity for this distant, unfamiliar and rather young woman. The plot ended, and Ekaterina Nikolaevna thoughtfully switched the TV to another channel. She then could not know what lay ahead for her, and that criminal plot would become her fate.
