Their arrival is the primer for an unknown series of events that puts an experienced inspector and his young colleague where we find them at the beginning of the movie: on a deserted weather station, where everyone seems to have vanished into thin air. The hank slowly unrolls as viewer discovers the truth behind everything, step by step, until the final loop of a long story line unravels and present him the final surprise.

Don't listen to the negative reviews
This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.
The Weather Station is a low quality foreign film with an amateurish story and weak characters.Coinciding events and crazy connections seem to join the characters in this silly notion of a plot. It does have a stylish and clever finish however, though unfortunately ninety percent of the film has no substance to warrant such a finish. I figured when Romash said the line you can't get to me and it sounded like he had shot himself, that it was a good chance it was a trick to get Andrey to come into the room off guard. That he had shot the dead girl and dropped the body to the floor, though I didn't foresee the clothes switch, because it had happened so fast even though that was the only possibility in that space of time.
It's about a meteorological station were some bad things happen. Parallely the investigation after the events is being shown to us by two charismatic policemen. They investigate step by step each clue and we're getting all the pieces of the puzzle piece by piece over the whole movie. There were some moments were I thought "oh no that is such an exaggerated situation/reaction" and but later on some sick twist made it suddenly appear reasonable. I think everyone who is into the crime/thriller/mystery type of movie should try this movie. The whole cinematography was also way better executed than I'm used to from Russian productions.
