Leshka lives in an isolated village on the Bering Strait, between Chukotka and Alaska. He is a teenager, and like most men in his village, a whale hunter. With the Internet’s recent arrival in Leshka’s village its male population now gathers in a shed every evening to watch girls dance on the screen of a constantly buffering erotic webcam chat site. For most of the guys, it’s just a bit of fun, but Leshka takes it seriously. He falls in love with a beautiful girl on the chat site, and this first love transforms him beyond recognition.
