This film plays out in Ukraine on a single day: March 14, 2022, the 2,944th day of the Russian-Ukrainian War. In the last few weeks, intense warfare has surreally mixed places and people and created a post-apocalyptic dimension revealing new qualities and roles. Thousands of Kyivans have moved to live in subway stations. The capital city's previously calm suburbs have been transformed into battle zones of destruction and looting by Russian occupiers. People no longer live according to "workdays" or "weekends," counting instead the number of days since Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine... The film presents this day in the lives of a pop music star, video engineer, historian, art restorer, polar researcher, and pensioner, who were all forced to radically change their lives.
One Day in Ukraine

Ukraine. ATO. This is a story about a father who learns about his son's death in the war. The body of the young soldier remains in the eastern part of Ukraine controlled by separatists. The father, refusing to accept the terrible realities of war, goes to the war zone in search of his dead son.
In the Field
Modern Ukraine. Crematorium. Two women await the ashes of their husbands. The first is the widow of a colonel who died of a heart attack in a sauna. The second is the widow of a volunteer who was killed by enemy fire in the ATO zone. Two women who are very different from each other, with different views on the events taking place in the country.
