Leshka lives in an isolated village on the Bering strait, and like most men in his village, he is a whale hunter. As internet recently arrived in the village, the predominantly male population now gathers in a shed every evening to watch girls thousands of kilometers away dance on the screen of erotic webcam chat sites. For most of the guys, it’s just a bit of fun, but Leshka takes it seriously. He encounters a beautiful girl on the chat site and falls in love with her. He is now determined to find the camgirl in the real world.
