On patrol in the Caucasus mountains, Russian soldiers Vanya and Sacha become the prisoners of a Chechen village. Tribal leader Abdul-Murat is willing to release the pair unharmed in exchange for his son, who is a prisoner in the custody of the Russians. After writing to their mothers with Abdul-Murat's terms, the duo are powerless to do anything but wait for an answer while getting used to life in the village.
