Synopsis:

Oryna, an 18-year-old Ukrainian girl, fled her homeland during the Russian invasion of Ukraine, while all her family, including her 7-year-old sister Ksiusha, decided to remain there. The film observes the daily remote communication between Oryna and her sister, and reveals their close bonds of sisterhood, which remain strong despite their separation and the constant presence of the war.
