In Spring 2022 Masha prepares to leave Russia. A chain of unexpected farewells: her mom dies of cancer, her lover flees army conscription, everything including her own old self is falling apart. Her way to cope with the grief is to fixate everything with her camera. A chronicle of the time, the autoportrait of a filmmaker crumbling against the backdrop of global turmoil.
