“This film roll is both a record and a reminder,” says one Ukrainian soldier. This is a story of how a camera carried in a pocket becomes a diary of dust, silence, work, people, and the moments that survive between missions.

“When your loved ones, your homeland, your entire nation are under threat—what do you do? You fight back.” For millions of Ukrainians, that answer has become a daily reality since Russia’s full-scale invasion.

Russia is demanding that Ukraine withdraw from parts of the Donetsk region in exchange for a ceasefire—while seeking to hold on to as much occupied Ukrainian land as possible, refusing to retreat from occupied areas in other regions. The issue is not merely the 6,000 square kilometers still under Ukrainian control, but rather Putin’s broader ambition to seize all of Ukraine. For Kyiv, conceding territory would only set the stage for future aggression—hence its firm stance that certain lines cannot be crossed.
