Synopsis
This film is divided into three chapters, each in a separate room. In each chapter, the atmosphere is determined by one predominant emotion. The main characters are the 9 to 14-year-old boys at Kronstadt Cadet Academy, a woman called Hadizhat Gataeva who saves children from the ruins of Chechnya, and the children living across the border in the Ingushetia refugee camp.
