Jakub, a 19-year-old Czech circus performer, travels to war-torn eastern Ukraine to teach juggling to children during his year-long study break. He begins to question his position in a war that is not his own and focuses on the conflicts in his head. Donbas Days is a portrait of a young man searching for himself on the frontlines of Europe's only war.

The film participated in the Munich International Documentary Film Festival 2022.
