    • Synopsis
    • Eastern Ukraine, in the nearest future. A desert unsuitable for human habitation.

      Sergiy, a former soldier suffering from PTSD, is having
      trouble adapting to his new reality: a life in pieces, a land in ruins. When the smelter he works at finally shuts down, he finds an unexpected way to cope joining the volunteer Black Tulip mission dedicated to exhuming war corpses. By working alongside Katya, he understands that a better future is possible.

      Will he learn to live without war and accept himself
      as he is?
