During the WWll, Nikolai Kiselyov faces an unthinkable task: he must withdraw more than 200 people doomed to death in captivity from the Belarusian village of Dolginovo occupied by the Nazis behind the front line. Will he be able to save the elderly, women, and children - exhausted, frightened, who have lost loved ones and faith in salvation - from the imminent brutal massacre? Jewish refugees, accompanied by Kiselyov and several partisans from the 'Avenger' detachment, will have to walk fifteen hundred kilometers, and this path will be the most dangerous test in their lives.
