In the late 1970s, a Russian pilot flying over a remote stretch of the Siberian taiga discovered, in the middle of a rugged wooded area, a cabin. Shortly afterwards, a group of scientists parachuted on the ground to notice with amazement that in the primitive wooden hut there lived a family, the Lykov, belonging to the sect of the old believers, whose clothing, notion of life and language they had frozen in the seventeenth century, under Tsar Peter the Great. By the time Vasili Peskov, a prestigious Pravda journalist, learned of this story, they had not contacted anyone in almost fifty years, they prayed ten hours a day, they had not tasted salt, and they could not even conceive that man had stepped on the moon. The only member left after the death of her parents and siblings was Agafia: the youngest daughter of the family.
