Synopsis

Tito is a shy 10-year-old boy who lives with his mother. Suddenly, an unusual epidemic starts to spread, making people sick whenever they get scared. Tito quickly discovers that the cure is somehow related to his missing father’s research on bird song. He embarks on a journey to save the world from the epidemic with his friends. Tito's search for the antidote becomes a quest for his missing father and for his own identity.

Russia, today.
Egor is a 25-year-old veterinarian on a rural farm which doubles as a hunting dog special training center using domesticated foxes. He is a grown man, but deep inside he is a child and it’s easier for him to get along with animals than with people.



In desperate need of a controlled environment after a violent past relationship with his mother, all he wants is to care for the animals and to feel part of the close-knit family he works for.



When animal rights activists invade this fragile microcosm, throwing off its delicate balance, Egor’s world begins to crumble...
