Student demonstrations of 1986 in Almaty and the ensuing crackdown and repression, told through a series of interviews. During the film, quotations from Gabriel Garcia Marquez’ One Hundred Years of Solitude are interspersed. The two young female film directors showed great courage in being able to make the film.
