A young Ukrainian man rises through the criminal underworld of the 1990s, building a reputation for violence and brutality as a low-level thug who becomes entangled in the lawless chaos of the post-Soviet era. The film follows his moral descent as he navigates loyalty, betrayal, and the consequences of a life defined by force. Told with a raw, unflinching style, it reflects on how ordinary people were consumed and corrupted by the turbulence of that period.
