The film is about that very morning when the whole of Ukraine woke up to the howling of sirens and explosions of Russian missiles. The movie unfolds between movement and stillness, peace and war, and ultimately between life and death. It is an attempt to convey the feeling of disintegration of reality that people experience when they find themselves in the epicenter of one of the most frustrating and catastrophic situations. It is about the sense of loss that Ukrainians are experiencing in one way or another during this war.
