What seemed incredible yesterday has become commonplace today. With its merciless and cynical hand, the war not only divided life into \"before\" and \"after\", but also shattered the former familiar ideas and relationships between people. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe wife of one of the protagonists, Serhiy Sukhobokov, Lisa, becomes a supporter of the \"Russian world\" and thus brings drama into their family life. She joins the occupiers and ends tragically. On one hand, he hates her, on the other hand, he continues to love her. These mutually exclusive feelings resonate painfully in his heart. Their daughter is torn between mom and dad. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe main characters of this book are journalists. In the country attacked by the aggressor, they must constantly respond to the new challenges posed by the war. Does a journalist of a country, that is a victim of the aggression, have to remain completely neutral, or does he (she) still have to become an information warrior? Does a journalist from a country, that has suffered from the aggression, have to be an impartial journalist, or can he (she) still take part in the resistance? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eHow to treat a world that is limited to expressing concern and is unaware of the inhumanity of Putin's regime, which has clearly challenged the world through the war with Ukraine.

The war changes the situation and forces professionals to look for new answers. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAnother painful issue is the attitude towards Russians, citizens of a country that declared its friendship and then attacked your country. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe protagonists are looking for answers to these questions, experiencing dramatic adventures. They liberated a French cameraman from captivity during the occupation of Crimea.
