Poetic renditions (by Anna Polibina) of two best-known Russian prayers and the original prose by the author of the film are illustrated by vivid, all-by-hand pictures (also by Anna Polibina) of old-Russian houses, steeples, temples and town panoramas. This film is an excursion into the dark centuries of the core of Russia. The movie was created in two poetic versions, Russian and English. It was the idea by the author, to render two prayers in the new, versified form.
