The Dyatlov Pass incident killed nine Soviet hikers in 1959 after they cut their tent open from the inside and fled barefoot at -30°C. The film follows Igor Dyatlov's group from Sverdlovsk to Kholat Syakhl, the tent found collapsed on February 26, the footprints in the snow and the bodies on the slope and in the ravine. It traces the 1959 "unknown compelling force" verdict to the 2020 prosecutor review and modern slab-avalanche science that finally explained the deaths.
