Sasha Volgina, a 31-years old Russian, is HIV positive and pregnant. At the moment, Russia has the fastest growing AIDS-epidemic in the world. More than 1 million Russian people have HIV, most of them younger than 35. In the meantime, there are not enough medicines available, the government does not invest in HIV prevention, and drug-users are being criminalized. Sasha leads a group of activists trying to do something about this situation. Filmmaker Jan Jaap Kuiper follows her in her daily struggle for survival.
