Background of the War. The Birth of the "People's Republics"
In my opinion, the Russian Spring is being treated very unfairly by researchers and documentarians. We have excellent Vice News reports, but they did not set out to cover all the processes that took place in eastern Ukraine in the spring of the 14th year. But the origins of today's war grow from there. My film is an attempt to fill this void. To give the viewer a complete picture of the events and allow them to form their own opinion about it. This is a thorough chronicle that will allow a person who is completely unfamiliar with the topic to immerse himself in it and understand all the nuances.

The separated sisters had to go through severe depressive episodes and accept that they would never be able to start a family and have children. Neither of them was ready to lose each other, but in 2015, Zita died at the age of 24.
