Освідчення в любові

Women of Ukraine of the 20th century — residents of villages, collective farms, and cities of the Soviet republic — talk about themselves. The context of the great story is revealed through tragic, not at all bookish, first-person narratives and documentary footage of menial labor in the fields and construction sites.

The documentary about the destinies of women who lived or are living in different regions of Ukraine, and explores their destinies in the present. The film tells about the fate of the heroines of the film "Declaration of Love" (1966) Tekla Barmashova (killed in 1922), veterans Elizaveta Marapulets (died in 1982), Maria Lahunova (died in 1995), agronomist Maria Molodyk-Kryvokulska, milkmaid, deputy of the Verkhovna Rada of the Ukrainian SSR Nina Sribna-Babenko, violinist Lyubov Chaikovska and glider, master of sports Zinaida Solovei. Female heroines and their loved ones share memories, problems, talk about modern Ukraine.
