"What drives the people who come to war in our country?" Ukrainian director Oksana Karpovych seeks the answer in intercepted phone calls from Russian soldiers to their home front.  The soldiers' confessions about the rape, pillage and torture of Ukrainian civilians and prisoners of war are as shocking as the approval of their loved ones on the other end of the line. This soundtrack of hatred, chauvinism and propaganda is set against images that search for hope after the destruction: reclaimed Ukrainian villages, towns and highways that are slowly filling up with life again.
