A one-hit wonder Ivan in the deep state of a creative crisis is signed to a rehab program at the highly protected, isolated Sanatorium that promises a lifetime warranty for endless inspiration. A bourgeois setting with welcoming stuff slowly creeps into a violent cult that tortures artists in the name of inspiration, where Ivans greatest hit becomes his darkest nightmare.

What really makes this film stand out is the fact that Ivan Dorn, a singer vastly popular in Russia and CIS countries, effectively played himself. The actor refers to certain details of his own biography. In the movie, the protagonist is haunted by his own greatest hit—and in these moments, we hear Ivan Dorn’s real hit, "Stycamen", Russia’s top hit back in 2012. The viewers were aware of the fictional nature of the plot, however the combination of imaginary events and a very real person helped create a particularly submersive story.
