- Synopsis:
In 1989 Soviet Union, six Estonian students, most of whom are geologists, travel the trans-Siberian train eastward. They are headed to Buryatia, which is close to the Mongolian border. Their destination is a mountain range that is not very well charted; where they plan to search for an ornamental mineral called nephrite. The hardships of them being there begin to cause friction in the group. One night, one of the male members of the group, Eero (Reimoo Sagor), tells the scary tale of the “ghost mountaineer”. But, the horrors become much more real, when the “team leader” Olle goes missing, presumably buried under a small avalanche that seemingly comes out of nowhere. The team tries to find his body, but they fail. They leave the mountain side to report their missing friend. Arriving in a small town, they meet the police chief (Vadim Andreev), who instead of helping them takes their passports and holds them in a room. He is suspicious of their involvement with Olle’s death. Not helping matters is the increasing hostility of the indigenous Buryat people, who are even more pissed off when they realize that the young group has taken one of their sacred mountain stones. And, at least one of these people is genuine pervert with questionable tendencies shown towards one of the two pretty females in the group, Anne (Liis Lass). Things keep turning towards the worse and tensions continue to mount as the situation gets more and more tense. - Actors:
