Perfect Silence

A couple of filmmaking friends decide to work together and choose "walruses" - lovers of winter swimming and tempering — as the theme of their new work. And although it is not so difficult to establish contact with them, questions about how deeply a person can penetrate into the community from the outside arise again and again, as well as about which way of representation would be the most appropriate. One thing clings to the other, and now, thanks to the walrus clubs in Strogino and Shchukino, new arguments about why to make a movie are surfacing.

The film crew of the TV program “Earth and Sky” arrives in the village of Nizhny Arkhyz, home to an astrophysical observatory, to prepare a report on a scientific conference. Their work is complicated by conflicts within the team, the host’s inexperience, and the fact that the events unexpectedly take on personal significance for him, shifting the focus of the shoot.

Weekdays in the office. In between work, employees spend time talking, smoking, doing gymnastics, and personal chores. But a new hobby of one of the employees makes the inner life of the office public.

Everyday life of an elevator equipment specialist: complaints, inspections, acceptance of new elevators. In response to one of the complaints, a commission is formed to identify extraneous sounds and noises in the applicant's apartment. During the check, there is an assumption about the presence of sound from the engineering networks of the elevator. Additional examinations are being conducted. In parallel, a new elevator is being accepted, which is accompanied by problems.

Behind the monitor of the surveillance cameras, the guard detects a red glow in one of the rooms. The inspection of the premises did not reveal the presence of an outsider. The repeated occurrence of the glow forces the hero to figure out the source of the "problem". In parallel with the investigation, he arranges a "private life", trying himself as an actor.
