Le documentaire raconte l'histoire de deux familles kirghizes dont les fils ont péri en servant dans la guerre contre l'Ukraine. Leur chagrin déforme le monde au point où plus rien ne fait sens – les activités manuelles ont leur propre logique qui peut offrir un baume quand rien d'autre ne le peut. Chaque action semble aider les parents à oublier que la mort de leurs fils dans cette guerre qui n’était pas la leur était vaine.

-------------------

The documentary chronicles stories of two Kyrgyzstan families whose sons perished serving in a war against Ukraine. Their grief warps the world to the point where nothing makes sense – manual activities have their own logic that might offer a salve when nothing else will. But every this action seems to help parents forget that the death of their sons in someone else’s war was in vain.
