Minsk. 19 December 2010. After the Belarus government blatantly hijacked the results of the presidential election, tens of thousands of Belorussians took to the streets in peaceful protest. Tired of a ubiquitous system of lies, these demonstrators set their sights on truth and freedom; instead, what many of them got were beatings, arrests and prison sentences. The film depicts the fates of freedom fighters who not only lost their jobs and their right to an education but also endured terrible tortures of a physical and psychological nature. Through their eyes we see the investigative, judicial and penal systems of the last dictatorship in Europe.
