- Overview
- The comedy is based on Russian absurd laws according to violence and self defense. Early in the morning, Katya returns home from the night shift using her usual route. Walking home from the train station she has to go through the forest. Katya is attacked by a rapist in mask, but, fortunately, he is frightened by a dog, and he escapes. Police refuse to search for a rapist, since "there was no actual rape". Katya's life turns into a nightmare when violent attacks become regular.
