On the eve of the war, the people had no idea that they would soon have to face serious tests and deadly dangers. Also Alexei Arlovich, who hoped to build a happy family with his beloved. But the sudden attack by the Nazis changed his plans. Like the people around him, the young man believed that this was just an armed confrontation on the border, which would end in a couple of weeks, after which life would return to normal. Meanwhile, the situation only worsened: the enemy was rapidly moving inland. Local residents have to adapt to the conditions of the occupation, while Alexei does not want to tolerate the new state of affairs.
