The vibrant hippie movement that swept through the West also found its echo behind the Iron Curtain, inspiring a unique subculture of artists and free spirits in the Soviet Union. These long-haired rebels forged a community dedicated to peace, love, and bodily autonomy. Fast forward over four decades, a quirky group of Estonian hippies embarks on a road trip to Moscow, where the annual gathering on June 1 honors the 1971 KGB crackdown on thousands of their peers. Their journey delves into a psychedelic underground, illuminating the quest for freedom amid adversity.
