After spending months as a prisoner in Donbas, Ukrainian aerial reconnaissance expert Lilia returns home to her family. But the trauma of captivity continues to torment her and surface in dreamlike ways. Something growing deep within Lilia will not allow her to forget, yet she refuses to identify as a victim and will fight to liberate herself.

Very subtle in its portrayal of trauma as it builds continually, eventually arriving at a climax that is jarring but also sickeningly understandable. It hurts that such harrowing tales are not dissimilar to real life events.
