A poor nature writer named Hamster, who is fascinated by natural disasters, lives in his wooden villa in the countryside together with his only friend, a pet mouse.

In the village, he is considered a little strange – and he is indeed of a special quality. When a family that won the lottery moves next door, Hamster gets the chance of his dreams to start hoarding and, at the same time, to change the life of Rurik, an accountant who has lost his will to live, and also the lives of his wife Tellu and their children. Mad hoarding begins as they get ready for the imagined "cruellest winter of all time". All this gives the neighbour’s life a new direction, and Hamster’s dreams seem to be realised as the neighbour’s stock swells to unbridled proportions.
