70 years have passed since the Great Victory, but the memory of the heroes of the Great Patriotic War lives on in families to this day. Not every soldier was destined to return from the war. Missing, they lie in the expanses of our Motherland and wait for their time to return home. And they're coming back, coming back from the war, 70 years later. The Vympel search squad and dozens of other search squads consider it their duty to return the remains of the soldiers home and bury them, as befits heroes. This film is about the history of one fighter and about the memory that lives in the hearts of the people of our country.

The first Jewish cemetery in Riga was opened in 1725, and burials continued there until the end of the 1930s. After German troops occupied Riga in 1941, the cemetery became a mass grave site for more than 1,000 Jews who were killed on the streets and in the houses of the Riga ghetto. After World War II, many of the gravestones from the cemetery were removed and used as building material. In the 1960s, the place was destroyed and renamed "Communist Brigades Park". In 1992, the park was renamed the "Old Jewish Cemetery". Currently, the park, located in one of the poorest areas of the city, called Maskachka (Maskava is the Latvian name for Moscow), is a popular place for idle drunks, local kids and American tourists. The film is dedicated to the memory of the Jews of Riga.

St. George's Monastery, 90 km from Berlin, is the only monastery of the Moscow Patriarchate in Germany. About 10 monks and novices live here, most of them in their early twenties. They hold church services, build and renovate the monastery, whose isolated location and lack of parishioners make the daily life of novices, people from large cities in Ukraine, Belarus and Russia, similar to the practice of early Christian hermits. They have different motives for staying here, and for some, the tranquility of a remote German village means loneliness and doubt as well.
