Russia. Siberia, 500 km away from the nearest settlement. Here, on the top of the mountain, lives a man who calls himself Jesus Christ himself. 25 years ago, he founded the religious sect of the Last Testament. About ten thousand followers live in this community and there are many more around the world. A man and his son arrive at the Siberian community looking for paradise while the mother and the younger son stay in Moscow. The family is divided. The boy dives deeper and deeper into the new world in the middle of the taiga. (Huesca International Film Festival)
