The series takes place in the fall of 2018. Three Ukrainian warships depart from the Black Sea to Azov, performing a planned transition through the Kerch Strait. During the passage, Ukrainian crews are attacked, and 24 sailors are captured.
The next 286 days they will spend in Moscow Lefortovo. Despite the psychological pressure, interrogations and attempts to force Ukraine to renounce Ukraine, none of the sailors refused to take the military oath.
How and why did they survive? What role did the families of prisoners and their lawyers play in this struggle? And what really happened behind the walls of Lefortovo? The answers to these questions are in the events of the series 24.
