Donbass Volunteers: United Strength

Volunteers across Russia start projects to support Donbass defenders

Alexander Zaytsev makes portable stoves and brings them to the fighters in Donbass. He knows firsthand about how precarious conditions are for the fighters in the combat zone. Alexander recognizes that it is the little ordinary things, as well as the attention from people, that soldiers long for the most. The documentary captures the stories of passionate volunteers all across Russia. From crafting stretchers and sewing warm clothes, writing touching poems and establishing charity restaurants, volunteers make a difference in the soldiers everyday routine.
