Territory Without War

Overview

In Territory Without War, citizens of Ukraine, Russia, and Belarus struggle to build a new future. From Ukraine: a family from Mariupol, a mother and child with cerebral palsy from Odesa, and a young woman who evacuated her parents from Avdiivka. From Russia: a young man who fled on foot to Kazakhstan, a family that refused to send their father to war, and a couple whose love was deemed illegal when the LGBT+ community was branded “extremist.” From Russia and Belarus: activists persecuted for their politics. Their stories differ—tragic losses, forced exile, impossible choices—but all are bound by love for their families and the shared impossibility of going home while war continues.
