SYNOPSYS
Three women who lost their husbands and sons in the large-scale Russian war against Ukraine process grief in the Carpathians. But the beautiful landscapes do not cover the deep hole of loss. Still, Tamara, Liubov, and Svitlana find ways to cope with non-healing wounds through poetry, sisterhood, and dialogue with the film director. At some point, silent nature gets a voice to cry together with humans.
