- Synopsis
- In 2014, three young Ukrainian men with no military experience set out to serve their country in the Russo-Ukrainian War. After two years on the frontline, the three men slowly try to adapt to civilian life. When Russia invades Ukraine in February 2022 they are forced back to the frontline. Confronted with the trauma they have been trying so hard to overcome, they have to not only face the challenge of securing their homeland, but also of safely returning to lives they worked so hard on building up. A self-sacrificing story of modern Ukrainians through the prism of three colorful characters.
