An unknown writer suddenly creates a work of amazing power, but his next works are no good - he is mediocre. A historian who has never become famous before suddenly makes a brilliant discovery. An undistinguished politician becomes a deputy. And so on - there are seven names on the list. And then they begin to get rid of these people. A floppy disk with a list of seven names falls into the hands of TV cameraman Dima and his journalist acquaintance Nika - and they also try to kill them. Strange events are layered one on top of another. It is clear that this is not an accident. Maybe it’s the name Sternburg, which is on the mysterious floppy disk? And all this is constantly being watched by someone’s wary eyes.
