Overview
The brothers Vanya, Kostya and Danila Popov kept the whole village in fear for many years and terrorized the neighbors. The coronavirus pandemic changed everything: the brothers locked themselves in their house, and the residents breathed a sigh of peace for the first time in many years. At the end of the self-isolation, the villagers unanimously decide not to inform the Popov family about the lifting of quarantine. So begins a big scam involving the entire village of 200 people. Everyone's peace and well-being are at stake, but how long will it be possible to keep a secret and won't it have more serious consequences? Residents are trying to do everything to prevent failure. Meanwhile, the younger Popov falls in love with a nurse who has arrived from the city and jeopardizes the entire village plan.
