And They Will Talk About Us
is a documentary that interweaves the lives of two main characters: Sergey and Anna. Sergey is an entrepreneur who offers military tours for foreigners. His story is about the rise of his small empire, from a small business he started with the help of friends to a huge money-making machine that became the most successful extreme tourism company in Ukraine. Anna is a volunteer who had to flee Donetsk (her hometown) at the beginning of the conflict between Ukraine and Russia. She now teaches children art and games and often travels to the Donbas to provide the people with clothes and toys. This life gives her purpose and fulfillment, but when she meets Alex on an overnight train, she falls in love with him and abandons her ideals. Unfortunately, Alex leaves her when she becomes pregnant with his baby. She is alone in Kyiv, has no money and no place to live and faces an uncertain fate.
Will their paths cross? What do their stories tell us about Ukraine after the revolution in Maidan Nezalezhnosti?
