2017 - traveling around Russia with a German tourist group. On the road to read, I take the diary of the Wehrmacht soldier Buff, who died in 1942 while trying to provide first aid to a Russian soldier. Our route intersects with the places where he fought. I grew up in Russia. My grandmother worked in Stalin's camps. 2022 - the conflict that Russia's attack on Ukraine caused in me runs like a thin thread through the film. The journey through Russia was filled with meetings between people who shared the experiences of their parents and grandparents - those who lived through the Second World War. In the brief moments of rapprochement, many questions remain unanswered, primarily questions about the meaning of the war.
