The memory of World War II is the only thing that makes a small Russian town alive. Like a great treasure this memory is preserved here in every home and is passed on from generation to generation. Yet exactly this memory prevents people from understanding that despite their own will they are getting involved in a new war.

Curator's point of view: This small town is as an example of patriotic frenzy, succinctly formulated in the slogans "Thank you grandfather for the victory" and "We can repeat it."
