The Kazakh village Karatas has long been subjugated by a criminal boss called Poshaev. He provides housing and jobs for the locals but will ruthlessly execute anyone who dares to oppose him. This is the lesson the pauper Arzu is about to learn first-hand—his wife Karina has informed the police about the crimes that are taking place there. Arzu is a cripple; now he must raise his little daughter alone. He is so helpless and grief-stricken that he doesn’t even seem to be contemplating revenge. Poshaev takes him under his wing and offers him the position of a guard at a building site. Soon Arzu has a chance to prove his loyalty, and he becomes Poshaev’s right hand. But where do Arzu’s real loyalties lie—with his boss or with the idea of justice?
Well digger Ensep decided to increase the payment for his work and get rich. Pride and vanity seized his soul, and he takes orders only from rich and noble clients. At this time, Karakalpak appears in their village, who moved with his family from Khorezm. Karakalpak digged up the deepest well in the steppe for a small amount of money. As a result, his fame spread across the steppe, and all the customers slowly pass from Ensep to him. All the time Ensep looks for a chance to dig the deepest well than Karakalpak, and glorify his name again. The main idea illustrates that nature usually take revenge on a human being, if he crosses the line of the unauthorized. There is a limit to the ability of a person, and he must feel, if he goes beyond or down the line, something irreparable might happen.
