"You can be free in prison, and in captivity outside it." This isn't a film about religion, nor about tests of faith, nor about addiction. It's a story about the fate of people, who found each other and began to believe in the possibility of salvation not only in the metaphysical realm, but here and now. The film tells the story of parishioners and a pastor of the Pentecostal Church in the town of Tomsk in Siberia. The film's protagonists had committed crimes of varying seriousness while suffering from drug and alcohol addictions that had resulted in incurable illness. Having lived through long years of incarceration, they are making perhaps their final attempt at salvation and freedom.
