Serbia has not joined Western sanctions against Russia, and polling in the film suggests most Serbs back Vladimir Putin over Ukraine. DW's crew films demonstrations where crowds chant "Serbia and Russia: brothers forever" and "Putin, Putin," and talks to construction worker Sreten Mijovic, who calls Ukrainians antichrists and says Russia, Serbia, and the football club Red Star Belgrade matter most to him. The Grbovic family recalls the weeks they spent in a cellar during NATO's 1999 bombing of Serbia, when Russia was the only power to take Serbia's side, a memory the film treats as the root of today's mistrust of the West. Interviews and street scenes lay out the contradiction driving Serbian politics: a government pursuing EU membership while a population feels bound to Moscow by Orthodox Christian faith and shared Slavic culture. The film stays close to ordinary Serbs rather than officials, using their memories and loyalties to explain a foreign policy stance that looks strange from outside.
