The film's protagonists are ordinary people of different professions: builders, entrepreneurs, workers, and even playwrights and writers. All of them volunteered for the Ukrainian Armed Forces at the beginning of the racist invasion and ended up in an infantry battalion that, along with other units, took part in the defense of Chernihiv in key areas. They defended Chernihiv and are ready to defend Ukraine!

Now the Simargle battalion is defending Ukraine in the east, and some of the film's participants are unfortunately no longer alive.
