Maidan Nezalezhnosti, or Independence Square, is the central square of Kiev, which gave its name to the large-scale anti-government movement that unfolded in Ukraine in the winter of 2013-2014. A movement that led to the overthrow of the existing regime. However, the happiness of the newfound freedom was overshadowed by the ensuing Russian annexation of Crimea and bloodshed in Eastern Ukraine, inflamed, controlled from Russia. This film is a kind of selection of people's documentary news made on the Maidan in Kiev, in the Crimea and Moscow. The authors shoot their "news" without looking back at ideology, censorship and the logic of war.
