On the outskirts of a small coastal town in the Barents Sea,
where whales sometimes come to its bay, lives an ordinary family: Nikolai, his wife Lilya and their teenage son Romka. The family is haunted by a local corrupted mayor, who is trying to take away the land, a house and a small auto repair shop from Nikolai. To save their homes Nikolai calls his old Army friend in Moscow who has now become an authoritative attorney.
