At the end of the twelfth century, Kievan Rus was a huge battlefield. The princes fought each other tooth and nail; if two people united, it was only to repel the third - or to attack him by surprise. The turmoil did not stop for a moment, the eternal civil strife did not fade away. Various forces intervene in the fate of Rus', not allowing Prince Igor, his faithful comrades and sworn enemies to leave the saddle and part with their weapons. The intrigues of cunning khans, the machinations of alien sorcerers, even the evil craft of pagan gods who sensed the imminent end of their power - everything is intertwined in the great epic, whose faint mysterious echo - “The Tale of Igor's Host” - has reached us from the depths of time.
