Russian original
In the name of his first love for a beautiful Turkish woman, the young German renounces his past by burning family photos. He is no longer Thomas. Now, he is called Hamza. And he is enlisted. Alexey Basargin is a captain in the Russian army, a scout, a loving husband, and father. They keep video diaries of their lives. Two destinies. Two worlds. The collision is inevitable.
