synopsis

Ilya Goryunov is 27, and has spent the last seven years in prison on a false charge of dealing drugs. Finally outside, he's driven by his desire for revenge against Petr, the rich kid who framed him and ruined his life. When the two come face to face, Ilya impulsively takes Petr's smartphone, giving him access to the man's life-pictures, videos, conversations with his parents and girlfriend and strange messages from colleagues full of unspoken words and threats. Ilya takes Petr's place. In the virtual world, at least.
