Polish medics have volunteered to help on the Ukrainian war front. Each day, they put themselves on the line, saving wounded Ukrainian soldiers, civilians, and captured Russians, too. Polish medics of the Awangarda Group give a detailed account of their mission. They also describe the way the wounded soldiers have to cover – from the trench to a field hospital – rushed by the Polish medics. At the same time, we encounter people who refused to flee and keep on living along the frontline. They also get help from the volunteers.
