Almost 80 years after the Battle of Moscow, journalist Alexander Nikitin found a photo at an online auction selling photographs from the Great Patriotic War, which depicted a young partisan hanged from a tree. On the back of the photograph is the inscription: "1941. Golovkovo Village."
The authors of the film conducted their own investigation and discovered that the photo depicted Hero of Russia Vera Voloshina.
Vera Voloshina and her comrade-in-arms in the fight against the fascists, Zoya Kosmodemyanskaya, found themselves in the complete power of a fierce crowd of soldiers who had received the legal privilege to kill. They opposed their strength to the enemy. The strength of the weak.
The goal of the film is to open up new pages of their feat to their contemporaries.
