Ten director graduates from Marina Razbezhkina’s School of Documentary Film and Documentary Theatre lived with a camera for two months in order to chronicle the last “Russian winter” and its popular uprising against Vladimir Putin’s presidential run. People, faces, conversations, protests, failures and triumphs come together to chronicle the campaign.

A 12-year-old girl, Tasia, from the village of Tomsino in the Pskov Region wrote a letter to Vladimir Putin asking her to help her mother, a nurse in a local hospital. The villagers didn’t like this, where Tasya and her mother had moved shortly before that - they say, you need to "work, not ask." Tasha began to be poisoned, and an ex-girlfriend met her online under the guise of a young man and lured naked photographs.

День России

On June 12, Russia Day, opposition leader Alexei Navalny moved the protest from Sakharov Avenue to the very center of the city, on Tverskaya Street, where the reenactors ' festival was held that day. People in armor mingled with the streams of protesters, with the police in full combat gear... The result - tough detentions, a stampede and flags from the window of the paddy wagon.
