A voice that broke empires, a body that broke — and still she sang.
A singer with a divine, angelic voice. She lived a bright, but such a difficult life. And she sang in a way that the happiest people do not sing. She was born in Uzbekistan, years of life and audience love connected her with the Soviet Union, she considered Poland her home, and her fate was decided in Italy. On the way to Milan, the singer got into a car accident, which for many years deprived her not only of the stage, but also of a full life. The film was shot in the genre of docudrama and is based on real events. It is based on interviews with Anna's husband Zbigniew Tucholsky, as well as with her close friend Anna Kachalina, music editor at the Melodiya recording studio.

The real Zbigniew Tucholsky appears in final interviews, still guarding her dresses like relics.
