Synopsis
Unsuccessful actor Alexey Vyazintsev learns that his father was killed under mysterious circumstances. Alexey travels to Shironino, his father's hometown, to sell his apartment, but instead finds himself embroiled in a series of dangerous events. Locals believe that the books of the long-forgotten Soviet writer Gromov have magical properties. Each of these books gives a specific effect: Rage, Patience, Power, Joy, Strength or Memory. The secret world of readers of Gromov's books is divided into Libraries that hunt for books all over the country and are ready to kill competitors for the sake of their strength. Vyazintsev will have to become a part of one of the Libraries, reveal the secrets of his own family and go in search of the rarest of magical books — the book of Meaning.
