Story
1999 year. American writer Samson Young lives in London. The last two decades, in a deep creative crisis, he has not written a single line. In addition, Samson is terminally ill. In parallel, the story of Nikola Siks, who met in a bar with two men, is developing. Both, at her request, will become her potential killers - a petty crook and a timid aristocrat. By watching them, Young hopes to break the writer's silence and write something worthwhile.
