The battle for Donetsk Airport (May 2014 - January 2015) through the warriors's eyes of both sides. The humans behind the battle. The Donetsk Airport, Ukraine. Rebuilt in 2012, but now a scene of utter devastation - shortly after Russian-backed separatists have taken it over. Weaving together the voices of fighters on both sides supported by battle video, we tell an unvarnished story of war through the eyes of those who were there. The desperate fight for an airport whose capture seems more symbolic than strategic, they also show how human nature can adapt - in sometimes disturbing ways - when one's life is on the line.

For half a year the camera followed a batch of conscripts deep inside the Russian Army. Each of character has undergone an amazing transformation. Cinema-verite method allowed to edit the film as an uncomfortable and outrageous real-life drama. A bleak but ironic, harsh but romantic, outrageous and paradoxical.
