It's about Winston Churchill and says a lot about not appeasement of dictators, like Herr Hitler.
Yes, I know, Putin isn't Hitler.
But, I recommend watching it. If only for Gary Old man's incredible performance as Churchill.
Don't underestimate us Brits in our determination in the face of impossible odds.

I'm watching the Russian podcaster who says that Russia needs to change and not be appeased, and all international criminals within that regime need to be prosecuted. (I'm stuck indoors today nursing symptoms of who knows what kind of virus.)
He also warns us to expect Putin's propaganda waves so as to brainwash the Russian people and try to bring in foreign investment. He believes Putin is losing the war, economically, and on the battlefield, so Putin has to make peace but he won't give up the occupied territories. So here we are.
