This is a film about blindness — both physical and spiritual. The protagonist, Oleg, is deafblind. He can neither see nor hear, yet his heart remains open to goodness and his soul to people. Oleg acts as a magical mirror — when one interacts with him, it becomes immediately apparent whether one reflects humanity or a beast hidden behind a human facade. Oleg yearns for vivid experiences while spending his dim days in a home for the disabled. But one day (chance being God's hand), he gets lost in the metropolis, and his life changes fundamentally.
