Un metorite caduto sulla terra ha prodotto strani fenomeni in una zona, prontamente protetta e recintata dall'esercito. Per entrarci esistono però delle guide clandestine, chiamate "Stalker", capaci di condurre chiunque lo richieda fino alla "camera dei desideri". Uno scrittore, uno scienziato e uno stalker partono verso la misteriosa zona. Ne torneranno profondamente cambiati.
