The Plastic Men

Sergeant Dmitry leads his platoon through a derelict chemical plant in the exclusion zone. His gas-masked soldiers resemble ghosts among the rusted pipes and frozen reactors. Suddenly, radio contact cuts out, and figures begin to emerge from the fog, mirroring their movements with uncanny precision. The 2025 war drama morphs into an existential nightmare where the enemy becomes one's own masked reflection, and the line between human and mannequin blurs in a toxic haze. The director explores the dehumanization of war through the metaphor of the plastic double, forcing viewers to question what remains of identity when the face is hidden and the body becomes a tool.
