In 2003, Studio Tatyana was shut down by the Lukashenka administration, but the filmmakers' work continued: this is the studio's final manifesto, completed after the closure using the archival material that managed to escape confiscation. Investigative and unsettling, the film documents the rise of the dictator and the political repression – including political assassinations – from the perspective of Russian and Belarusian politicians and citizens attempting to resist.
