In 2020 Belarus, journalist Lena secretly livestreams a peaceful demonstration against Lukashenko's regime. As police storm the streets, her broadcast is traced and she is abruptly arrested. Her husband Ilya faces an impossible choice: remain steadfast and fight for her release or comply with the regime to spare them both. Inspired by the real-life story of Katsyaryna Andreeva, Under the Grey Sky is a stark, intimate portrait of resistance. Through minimalist domestic interiors, handheld camerawork and a muted greyscale palette, the film avoids sensationalism, channelling instead quiet rage and profound moral urgency. Featuring powerful lead performances and framed by authentic archival footage, it shows resistance as a deeply personal act.
