Pavel Strokov, the head of the meteorological station, who has worked in the mountains of Tajikistan for a quarter of a century, says there is a possibility of a devastating mudslide. But unfortunately, his warnings are not taken seriously.
Four swindlers - Kamol-aka, Gafur, Gafar, and Murodi - set up a marriage bureau at a photo studio. The first grooms appear, and soon a well-known horseman, Saidbek, becomes a client of the bureau. He wants to marry Malika, but she rejects him. The swindlers kidnap the girl.
