"Leviathan" is a modern day retelling of the Biblical story of Job set in contemporary Russia. Kolya lives in a small town near the Barents Sea, in North Russia. He has his own auto-repair shop. His shop stands right next to the house where he lives with his young wife Lilya and his son from a previous marriage Romka. Vadim Sergeyich, the Mayor of the town, wants to take away his business, his house and his land. To Vadim, the land represents the perfect piece of seaside real estate for future development, but to Kolya, it's his ancestral home. It represents freedom - man's sole true possession.
First the Mayor tries buying off Kolya but Kolya isn't interested in money, he doesn't want to lose everything he has: not only the land, but also all the beauty that has surrounded him from the day of his birth. As Vadim Sergeyich starts being more aggressive, Kolya asks his best friend Dmitri, a lawyer from Moscow, to help him, unaware that this would change his life forever.
