The action-Packed drama is dedicated to events that took place in the not- so- distant past, but today seem almost fantastic. It was a time of brutal and incompetent ideological interference in Russian science, the suppression of all reasonable and progressive - in particular, in genetics and breeding, a time when scientists often had to choose between an honest name and life. The hero of the film, faced with such a choice, only miraculously manages to escape from the massacre.
