Amidst the chaos and destruction of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, three artists defiantly find inspiration and beauty as they defend their culture and their country.

In a war waged by professional soldiers against ordinary civilians, Slava Leontyev, Anya Stasenko, and Andrey Stefanov choose to stay behind, armed with their art, their cameras and, for the first time in their lives, their guns. As the war intensifies, Andrey picks up his camera to film their story, and on tiny porcelain figurines, Anya and Slava capture their idyllic past, uncertain present, and hope for the future.
