In Anticipation (В очікуванні)
Prisoner of war exchange. Hundreds of relatives are in the hospital yard — there are more of them than liberated Ukrainian soldiers. Who will meet their loved ones today, and who will wait further? The first minutes of the meetings culminate in a climax, where people and spectators merge in common anticipation.
