Disk Utility can't repair APFS volume, how to recover data?

Good day. I can't repair APFS Volume. I tried: diskUtil, fsck_apfs, repair from recovery mode. But nothing helps me. Also this volume is encrypted by FileVault (I remember password). So, maybe someone know what can I do to recover files/repair file system.

Since Disk Utility and fsck command fail to repair your drive, you can fix the corrupted APFS drive by formatting it. Before that, use professional Mac data recovery software to restore data from APFS drive first.
