Both following the students’ hike, day by day, hour by hour, and later the investigation lead by KGB agent Oleg Kostin, Dead Mountain: The Dyatlov Pass Incident is based on the de-classified files of the real-life case, that had people spinning wild theories all over the world for more than 60 years.
Major Kostin, a war hero who lost his wife and son, has an almost supernatural intuition – an ability to see and feel unexpected, concealed things.
One question haunts his investigation: what could frighten the students so much that they left the safety of their tent, in the dead of a cold Siberian night, leaving their clothes and provisions behind?
Oleg is hell-bent on finding the truth. But the more he learns, the more it becomes clear: The reason the students died will never see the light of day. No one can ever know what really happened. No one. Except him.
