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.
“Under The Grey Sky. rings with an authenticity laced with quiet rage.” (Journey Into Cinema.)
“... a subtle yet convincing portrayal of life under the dictatorship in Belarus” (Cineuropa)
“It's a heart breaking tale of political abuse and the things we do for the ones we love.” (Unseen Films Reviews)
"Tamkovich never loses control of her well-paced narrative that avoids melodrama to tell a tension-fuelled tale, still all too common in countries which turn a blind eye to modern day human rights issues" (Filmuforia)
