Synopsis:

1919, Siberia. Deep in the unforgiving landscape, a shunned Christian community practises its esoteric religion. With their town under the military rule of a demented Kurtz-like commander fighting the Russian Civil War, they await the remorseless assault of Bolsheviks along the Trans-Siberian railway. Then Samarin arrives. Appearing in the community with stories of escape from Russia's northernmost prison camp, he claims to have been pursued by a cannibal known only as 'The Mohican'. Anna Petrovna, a determined widow, feels something for the new arrival, but when the local shaman is found dead, suspicion and terror engulf the little town.
