Set against the war in Ukraine, this documentary delves into the complex relationship between a Russian mother and her daughter, who is marrying a Ukrainian citizen. Through phone conversations and nostalgic VHS tapes of family gatherings, the film raises profound questions about the meaning of family, love, and the impact of war on human relationships. It offers a poignant reflection on the universal human desire to maintain connections with our roots, even amidst the most challenging circumstances, and the catastrophic influence of politics on the people’s private life.
