The animated short Mariupol. A Hundred Nights tells us a story of a little girl who wakes up on February 24th because of the air alert, and tries to find someone living in the burning city. The main character is based on the story of Alisa, a 4-year-old girl, who stayed in the besieged Mariupol during the whole time; she was also at the Azovstal plant during the last month of its defence. When the Russians allowed the civilians to evacuate from Azovstal, Alisa was separated from her mother.
