The film shows the Ukrainian Revolution of Dignity on the Kiev Independence Square in the winter of 2013-2014, caused by the violent crackdown on the peaceful demonstration of students by a detachment of the special forces militia Golden eagle, which led to the overthrow of the regime of President Viktor Yanukovych.

Yevgeny Afineevsky and his team interviewed protesters, activists, medical professionals, artists and clergy who represented different generations, social classes, nationalities and religions, including a 12-year volunteer.

The film documents the struggles of Ukrainian protesters who stood their ground, despite the bloodshed, despair and difficult conditions.
