Natalya, a brilliant young student, is caught in a vengeful act against her dissident father. She endures a nightmarish journey to Camp Norilsk, one of Siberia's cruelest gulags.

Upon arrival, Natalya learns that the camp’s younger, more beautiful women are used for the sexual gratification of the guards, but her fate will be even worse.

As the new arrivals are auctioned off for the guards’ pleasure, Natalya is spared from the immediate horror—but only because Colonel Poliakov has darker plans for her.

Colonel Poliakov, an old enemy of her father, claims Natalya for himself. Under the guise of interrogating her, he begins a campaign of sexual degradation and cruelty.

Natalya’s once-promising future is shattered as she becomes a personal prisoner to the Colonel. Her life at Camp Norilsk is filled with relentless abuse and despair.
