It's March 2022. Ukrainians are fleeing the Russian invasion en masse. Ukrainian artist Bohdan Mucha has returned to Kyiv, where Ukrainian forces are preparing for the siege of the capital.
Bohdan's artists' residence has also joined the resistance. The artists are now making Molotov cocktails. Among them is Maxime, a Russian artist who has decided to stay. He is torn between what he sees in Ukraine and the reprimands of his fellow Russians, who only believe pro-Putin propaganda. His brother is part of the invading Russian troops; he has had no news from him but suspects he is not far away.
