Extreme athletes - the Old Man, the Racer, the Clown and the Hare - do not pay attention to anything but parachuting. They are preparing for the World Cup, and are raising money for it. They do not doubt that they will be the first, but the younger brother of the Old Man - the Hare, has decided to "borrow" from serious people an attractive diplomat. Inside were not money but an artifact belonging to a real psychopath. The main villain, Doc, kidnaps the guy and takes him to his estate.

Doc is a man from nowhere with the oligarch's manners and maniacal character. He is not worried about power and money, because they belong to him. Doc is most interested in his terrible hobby, which has already become a kind of religion. The hare is the next victim of his experiments, which must prove the validity of these beliefs. Only his old brother, to whom Doc offers mutually beneficial cooperation, can save the boy. The old man faced the dilemma of committing a crime for the sake of his brother or trying to save him by risking both Hare and himself and his friends. Meanwhile, friends - the Clown and the Racer - are experiencing completely different feelings, meeting in these dangerous moments their love.

The heroes of the film - retired and active (at the time of creating the film) the highest ranks of the security forces of Ukraine tell about the turning point of the Orange Revolution and analyze the reasons for the disobedience of the security forces. Among them: Commander of the Internal Troops of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine Oleksandr Kikhtenko, Commander of the Land Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Mykola Petruk, Head of the SBU Military Counterintelligence Vitaliy Romanchenko, Deputy Chief of Military Intelligence of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine Mykola Melnyk.

On the other hand, Ukrainian politicians of the highest level tell about unknown, often sensational facts of negotiations between the government and the opposition: President of Ukraine Viktor Yushchenko, former Prime Minister of Ukraine Yulia Tymoshenko, Chairman of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine Volodymyr Lytvyn and others.

This film is about the great self-sacrifice of people for the sake of compatriots, about the heroism and wisdom of Ukrainians - from an ordinary citizen to a famous politician, from a soldier to a general.
