Inspector Glebsky is summoned to a remote mountain lodge. To the proprietor's knowledge, nothing is amiss, but poor driving conditions force Glebsky to spend the evening with the hotel's strange guests. When an avalanche cuts the chalet off from the rest of the world, mysterious events are set into motion - with dire consequences for the guests: Olaf is found dead, and Hinckus tied to his bed, while a man turns up outside the hotel, nearly frozen. Even the physicist Simonet cannot explain the origin of a strange briefcase found near Olaf's lifeless body. Glebsky springs into detective mode, but the facts lead him to a conclusion that his logical mind cannot reconcile. (CinEast)

The novel of the same name by the Strugatsky brothers, in my opinion, is not their best work and at that time, science fiction did not have an easy time under the leadership of Soviet cinema. There was no tradition, suitable special effects, and a budget were not available, and neither the screenplay nor the direction were able to accurately convey the atmosphere of the literary work into a film. Today, this film is valuable mainly for collectors and genre fans as a kind of curiosity. Just the fact that it was filmed by a state studio, where there is a vast plain, even though the story takes place in the middle of high mountains. The current rating, I think, is slightly influenced by users' nostalgia. Overall impression: 40%.
