Sakharovo

In the winter of 2021 rallies were held in Russia in support of Alexei Navalny. People protested against the arrest of the politician.

As a result, an unusual group of people gathered in the special detention center - almost a thousand young men and women who were close in spirit. This film is their memories of their days behind bars.
