Captain Fedor Volkonogov works in law enforcement. He is on the good books of the management, and his colleagues respect him. But one day, his life abruptly changes: he is declared a criminal. The Captain manages to run away before he is arrested. Suddenly he turns into an outcast, whom his former colleagues search across the whole city. At night Volkonogov is visited by a messenger from the other world, who warns him that after death he will go hell and be tormented forever.

But he cannot even fathom what tests are awaiting him on this way.
Una historia de rock, amor y amistad, "Leto" tiene lugar en Leningrado, durante el verano de 1981, cuando la escena del rock underground comenzó a florecer, influenciada por estrellas de rock occidentales como Led Zeppelin y David Bowie. La película ofrece una instantánea de esta época vibrante y muestra la madurez y la fama de los jóvenes cantantes de rock, incluido Viktor Tsoi, que se convirtió en un pionero del rock ruso. En lugar de una película biográfica de Tsoi, "Leto" representa el triángulo de amor entre Viktor, su mentor Mike, que también es músico, y su bella esposa Natasha.
