Synopsis
The film portrays a young human rights activist in russian Murmansk, who shares her thoughts and feelings about her ‘active life position’ in the current days.
“The question is not whether we’re afraid. The question is what we do when we’re afraid”, says the activist Zhanna, who lives in Murmansk and has been classified as a ‘hostile agent’ by the security forces for the past few years. Zhanna lives with her fear and still speaks out about the present political situation – in Russia and elsewhere. It’s the only way she can reassure herself that we ourselves are writing our story.
