After a harrowing ride along winding mountain roads overlooking Lake Baikal, Aleksey finally manages to ditch his drunken hosts and find a safer ride to a village where some old friends live. He spends a warm evening there among good company, singing songs about hitchhikers and vagabonds. The next day, Aleksey is bent on fulfilling his dream to take a dip in the world’s deepest lake, but finds he’s in for a chilly surprise. Then, it’s on to Ulan-Ude, where he is keen to see the town’s biggest attraction.
