Director Simon Mozgovyi

A timeless story, the film raises the questions of what happens if a global war would go on the final stage. It starts in a parallel reality, when the first unexpected nuclear explosion impacts vast territories,
releasing a powerful wave of radiation which has destroyed everything for hundreds of kilometers around. When the devastated area was examined, a small unaffected plot of land, surrounded by white fog was found.

A few meters above the ground, in the center of a whirling ball of flowers, there was an immobile human, also covered in flowers. Numerous chrysanthemum buds hung in the air and wrapped the
surviving grass like a pulsating shield. The expedition found an old woman who was miraculously unharmed, although unresponsive.

The old woman was sent to the nearest rehabilitation center to receive treatment as soon as possible, together with the doctor who was to be in charge of her recovery process. Preliminary tests demonstrated that her memories of the world around her, and about her personality, had vanished completely.

The recovery took months. Archival documents showed that this woman cultivated chrysanthemums and was also known as a healer, mystically saving dozens of people from various diseases with her hands. The doctor gets caught in the middle between the government’s desire to exploit the old woman’s seeming immunity to the nuclear genocide and her service to her patient and society. Moral and ethical concerns arise when the doctor wants to help her, however, the government had other plans for the old woman, which did not sit well with the doctor.

Having received a clear order to achieve results, the doctor restores her memory bit by bit. In the process of recovery it becomes clear that these memories can become unbearable for the old Healer. The doctor then realizes that if she dies there might be no future for humanity...

A story unfolds about the residents of a house in the Kyiv region from April to June 2022, following the de-occupation of the Kyiv region, situated not far from the conflict zone. We become acquainted with the inhabitants of the house—a family with two daughters, a lone man whose family has moved to Western Ukraine, a 90-year-old grandmother who refuses to seek shelter, believing that the walls of her apartment protect her, a doctor recovering from a concussion and soon returning to the front, Grandma Liza, who holds pro-Russian views, and the eccentric family of Aunt Mila, among others. Through the eyes of the main character, 17-year-old Marichka, who is trying to resolve/escape her own problems, we discover the lives of those who have been living alongside her all this time.

Just when it seemed that solutions were found and a purpose in life was discovered, everything is shattered by an enemy missile that destroys the entrance to the building and the lives of its inhabitants.
