After leaving commercial aviation, Vyacheslav Lazarev and his family move to the countryside, where he continues to go flying, but now on a small propellered AN-2. And the life of the Lazarev family goes on as usual, until one day a small bear cub, to whom Kolya, the pilot’s son, gives the nickname Mansur, bursts in. When Mansur is kidnapped by local poachers, the faithful sheepdog Palma comes to his aid. The two animals need to find their way home through a forest full of wild animals, hunters and other dangers. And the Lazarevs, who set off in search of their four-legged friends, will have to remember what it means to be a real family.

A father and son go on a camping trip to enjoy the pristine nature and spend time together. When they stop for the night, the boy begins to hear strange voices and then disappears without a trace.

From him the man learns that the forest is full of ancient signs and lives by its own laws.

The film is inspired by an incredible story of a shepherd dog named Palm who was inadvertently left in the airport by her owner.

It's a story of amazing adventures, true friendship and unconditional love.

The genius of mathematics Mikhail Nefedov teaches probability theory and mathematical statistics at the university. He remembers everything he has ever heard, seen or read. Mikhail learns that his teenage son has a dangerous genetic disease, the treatment of which will require a multimillion-dollar sum. After selling the apartment, Nefedov makes a perfectly calculated bet on a local football league match, but loses. He couldn't have made a mistake, which means there is an unaccounted variable in the equation. And this is an underground betting business where the results of games are rigged to extract illegal income. Mikhail calculates the organizers of the shadow business and demands his winnings from them. This is how the university teacher's war with the betting mafia begins.
