A curious neighbor, a drug dealer with a glass eye and a gun waving and promising revenge on everyone, such a company gathered in one house. There, as soon as two men move out, they carry not only boxes but also a naive belief to start their lives here again. The strangeness of the new settlement begins to manifest itself from day one: some cause a smile, others cause fear, still others evoke unexpectedly warm feelings...
