[3] A young Estonian hunter ventures into the Siberian taiga, seeking to discover his true self, far from the reaches of civilization.

Building a home in the wilderness, Niika quickly integrates with the local Evenki people, among whom he becomes well-liked.

Several women fall in love with him: first, a young village teacher who wants to be a good wife to him; and second, a striking fifteen-year-old from the local tribe, wild and untamed, who becomes his mythical "bear-woman".

When this rejected beauty plunges a knife into her stomach, Niika’s life takes a dark turn.
