Forty years ago, a documentary film about Soviet cardiac surgeons was released. Perhaps, for the first time on our screen, doctors reflected on the value of human life, talked about their experiences caused by the death of a patient, about the imperfection of Soviet medicine, the lack of knowledge and responsibility of doctors. For forty years, medicine has made an incredible breakthrough, but the moral problems that plague doctors have remained the same. “You can’t get used to death” is the leitmotif of the paintings, old and new. The film was awarded as the Best Non-Fiction Film at the Russian Film Festival "Window to Europe" - 2016.

The heroes of this picture are the winners. They were able to cope with a deadly disease, and it seems that they came out of this fight changed. They, their relatives, their doctors and their donors talk about what and who helped them recover, about what it is like to endure cancer, about how their attitude towards life is changing. These stories, which happened almost simultaneously, are somewhat similar and at the same time very different, because each person took something of his own from the battlefield.

There was a severe famine, people were swollen from malnutrition, and in order not to die, they ate grass cakes and porridge with sawdust. "Everything for the front, everything for victory!" it was the slogan of the time. Despite the difficulties, they did not lose heart, worked hard and believed in victory over fascism.
