Orléans is a typical provincial Russian town on the banks of a salt lake called Yarovoye. The town is 'steeped in evil'. But it isn't some great evil. This evil is of a banal and everyday type: Lida the hairdresser has indiscriminate affairs, followed by numerous abortions; Rudik the doctor enjoys an endless supply of women, thanks to his position, neglecting his paralyzed father who lives with him and hoping the old man will die soon; the local officer of the law has no qualms about committing murder; a magician from the local circus might actually be sawing women in half on stage... One day, a mysterious man appears in this quiet backwater town. He goes by the title of the Executor: at least that's what it says on his business card...

Es la palabra "horda" la que significó, para muchos países y naciones, redadas sangrientas y estar bajo una contribución humillante durante siglos, un mundo extraño y aterrador con sus propias reglas y costumbres. Ser o no ser para Rus (Ruthenia), ese es el precio de la misión de un solo hombre, ya que se está yendo a este mundo para lograr una hazaña. La película cuenta la historia de cómo san Alexio, el metropolitano de Moscú y el trabajador de las maravillas de toda Rusia, curó a la reina tártara Taidula, la madre de Jani-Beg, de la ceguera, en 1357.
