NOTES
This is a crime / mystery thriller with surreal and psychedelic science fiction overtones based on a book Inspector Glebsky's Puzzle by the Strugatsky brothers. The screenplay was also written by the brothers and it differs from the book. The less you know about the movie the better starting point you have. The film is based largely on the mystery of what's happening to the people of Dead Mountaineer's Hotel. Is everything what it seems? Who's dead or who's not?。一个住在森林中的残忍的杀手听到脑海中声音,被吸引到湍急河流的岸边。他被无形的力量冲到猪场附近的一个小磨坊。在那里,他看见他的另一个自我(一个女人)在磨坊干活。她跟他一样也拥有杀戮欲。两人联手将对没有戒备的村民展开一场血腥的大屠杀……。
