In June 1941, a group of young villagers in a Ukrainian farming cooperative plan a trip to Kiev, unaware of the impending German invasion. As the war arrives with airstrikes and ground troops, they become separated, with Kolya heading to rejoin his regiment while the others try to return to their village. Meanwhile, villagers form a guerrilla army, and tensions rise as Marina’s mother, Sophia, and Dr. Kurin face difficult moral decisions under German occupation. Their journey and the war will test their courage and convictions.
