EQUATOR - short synopsis
A Russian military base in the heart of Africa is feeling
the effects of the end of the Cold War - besides being seemingly
forgotten by the mother country. When the local tribal
chief asks the soldiers to kill a dangerous elephant, the
Warrant Officer is confronted with a new problem - how to
remove the rotting corpse from the village. He sends
two soldiers off on a mission to locate a tractor to remove
the elephant. Privates Solntsev and Korovin head out on a
dangerous trip with one rifle between them.
