Asclepius

Stepan Panfilov arrives at a provincial hospital. Formally, he is the new doctor; informally, he is a person who needs to investigate a series of suspicious patient deaths. At first, he faces medical errors, abuse of power, and the collusion familiar to any closed institution. The further he goes, the clearer it becomes: the case is not limited to negligence or personal vendettas. Outside the hospital walls, there is a struggle for the right to intervene in the very nature of life and death, and each new step in the investigation makes the situation more dangerous.
