The filmmaker Alexander Abaturov's cousin Dima was killed during a Russian Special Forces (Spetsnaz) operation in the Republic of Dagestan. He was 21. In The Son, Abaturov alternates between Dima's devastated parents and a group of young recruits as they undergo arduous training to join the Spetsnaz themselves-prepared to kill and die for a homeland they have pledged to love unconditionally.
