Sergio driving a taxi in a white Naples overflowing sadness and garbage. Pouring rain leads her clients through the city trying to process the death of his brother, who started ten years earlier for Tibet and never returned. A pop singer, a recycler of fragments of life, a radio announcer, an old uncle, alternate seats on its bearing, each in its own way, a trace of his brother loved. Stubborn not to go over and get lost in an endless race, Sergio is overwhelmed by memories and the music produced in pairs with Alfredo, which in Buddhism and in its foundations had found the strength to cope with the disease. Those notes that he believed buried and laid to always return overbearing and demanding a soundboard that resonate and express his being sound. Putting his hand on the piano, Sergio Alfredo feel again, giving the past with the present and realizing itself in the feeling.

Leviathan udspilles i en vindblæst by på Kolahalvøen, hvor Kolja har indrettet sig med sin anden hustru og sin søn fra første ægteskab. Uheldigvis har byens anløbne borgmester udset sig lige netop den grund, som Koljas hus befinder sig på, til et større byggeprojekt. Kolja engagerer en gammel advokatven, men individet har ikke stærke odds, når først magtbrynden ruller sig ud. De iskolde horisonter domineres af skibsvrag og skelettet fra en strandet hval, men selv om symbolikken står lysende klart, lodder Leviathan store menneskelige, moralske og politiske dybder. Mange har sammenlignet med salig Tarkovskijs stærkeste film, men Zvjagintsevs værk er mest af alt af en monomentalitet, som vi bedst kender det fra den store russiske litteratur.
