German filmmaker Sebastian Heinzel sets out on a journey to Belarus, a young nation that is torn between stagnation, protest and emigration. He meets a political refugee, members of the Resistance, a house painter, a Go-Go-dancer, a journalist without any prospects and a soldier devoted to his country. The film is a portrait of a generation trying to find its own way after the breakdown of the Soviet Union. On the border of the new European Union, some say Belarus is the last European dictatorship.
