The central theme of this bloody war film is the fighting to seize the hospital complex in Grozny, a place occupied by Russian soldiers led by a wounded colonel who lost an eye.
A dialogue is established by radio between him and a commander of a small unit of the Chechen army.
Intense fighting fills the screen; it is filmed partly like a documentary, in a realistic form.
We see Baltic girls, snipers, who receive money for each soldier "hit", as well as mercenaries from different countries, but also decapitations of live prisoners and summary executions.
