🎞️ The film by Ukrainian director Marina Chankova follows three elderly people in Ukraine who were displaced by the illegal Russian war of aggression or who still live in the affected and destroyed areas. In the midst of a brutal war, the film shows how these people try to maintain their dignity and independence and not give up their dreams and hopes for the future.
