Short documentary, 25 min, premiered in 2024
Synopsis
Women who have lost their husbands and sons in Russia's full-scale war against Ukraine find themselves mourning in the Carpathian Mountains. Yet, the stunning landscapes cannot fill the unbearable void left by their loss. Still, Tamara, Liubov, and Svitlana learn to live with their unhealed wounds through poetry, sisterhood, and deep conversation. At a certain point, the once-silent nature finds its voice, joining the women in their grief.
