The monochrome daily life of a mobile blood transfusion station in Russia. A fast vehicle with doctors and essential equipment for collecting blood donations travels through the Russian province, stopping in villages or small industrial towns where huge queues of voluntary donors form. They are all very determined, although their goal is not to selflessly help others, but to seek financial compensation to buy food. For half a liter of blood, you can earn around 850 rubles, and this small amount is a nice addition when you are out of work or paid 3000 rubles a month. The volunteers to sell their blood who flock to the blood collection center are people of all ages and from all walks of life, exhausted by the constant struggle for survival. But, perhaps this blood will save the lives of other people, as long as it doesn't contain this harmful element - HIV - or the infectious and contagious ones from hepatitis or tuberculosis. The needles sink into the white flesh, and black blood flows through the transparent cannula: It's amazing how fascinating a film about blood can be, devoid of even the tiniest red stain.
