The forensic psychologist Martin Lang and his wife Pawla arrive at a spa on the Slovak-Polish border. The spouses are plagued by a relationship crisis, stemming from a deep-seated trauma, and the spa is an ultimatum for them - either they stay together, or both will go their own way. The routine cycle of spa treatments walks through the bowels of the vast brutalist building complex, dull lunches in the canteen, lounging about in an empty bar or Lang's insomnia is disrupted by a delivery of a mysterious parcel - a package with evidence. The sender is Lang's fellow-psychologist Hanus, who needs his help in a case known as the "Death Ride", which involved four deaths. Lang refuses - he's taking time off and has enough problems of his own - but what prevails in the end is professional curiosity, boredom and some unknown force that draws him to the case.
