The dawns here are quiet...

Sergeant Fedot Vaskov commands a small unit of female anti-aircraft gunners — young girls who find themselves at the front. Upon discovering enemy saboteurs, the unit decides to engage in an unequal battle to prevent them from reaching a strategically important object.

During the clash, the girls show courage and selflessness, but the price of resistance turns out to be very high.

The poignant and profound prose of Vasiliev prompts us to reflect on what true heroism is and what our beliefs are really worth.
