    • Ten-year-old Oleg lives in War struck Eastern Ukraine, a region that often echoes with anti-aircraft fire and missile strikes. While many have left this dangerous area, Oleg remains with his grandmother and cousin Yarik. The kids are afraid, buy they also find the war exciting, especially when a neighbour teaches them how to use a gun. This is a film about those who stay behind.
