A terrible accident forever deprives Ulyana of family, a home, and friends. Now she wanders through communal apartments in the Moscow region, spends evenings in electric train cars, and suffers from loneliness. She has no future—yet she has a terrible gift: she can see someone else’s death in the gaze of anyone she encounters along her path. A curse or an illness? There is no answer. Only the scent of bitter wormwood and visions that strip her of her mind. To get rid of them, Ulyana is ready for a lot—even to get involved in a dangerous game of survival.
