A remarkable documentary from East Ukraine, shot by young photographer and cameraman Juraj Mravec, is an important report on the state of a country that has changed into a war zone. Interwoven with impressive black-and-white photographs and accompanied by a subjective daily-like narration, its storyline focuses primarily on the consequences of war. The fleeting portraits of Donbas residents are composed into a mosaic of ruin and fear but also of human vitality, ability to survive and rejoice over everyday things the war has not yet taken away from them – just like their faith in a better future.
