The Butcher, aka Sanych, aka Alexander Prostyak, together with his father, enjoy great respect among the residents of the small village of Volnolesye. The father holds a high position in the management of the village, and during his reign he brought Volnolesye out of a decadent state. The Simpleton's son helps his father in every possible way, which does not prevent him from doing his “dark” deeds. At one point the time comes for drastic changes. The threat of being “trampled” and even killed hangs over the Simpleton family. Will the Simpleton family be able to maintain their respect? Will the Butcher and his friends be able to avert the threat from their “dark” deeds?
