The film recreates gradual transition of the society from peaceful life to the state of war. Shot in March-April 2014 in Donbas, it follows the transformation of social protest into an armed revolt, supported by covert foreign invasion. The film doesn't focus on individual stories, instead showing the mechanisms of inflaming the war that lead to the social collapse.
