DIVIA reveals Ukraine’s harrowing journey through unprecedented Russian aggression and its haunting aftermath: forests reduced to ash, fields damaged by explosions, and the haunting presence of abandoned military wreckage amidst treacherous minefields. Amidst this desolation, nature stands as a silent witness, absorbing and beginning to heal from the scars of conflict. The meditative narrative without any dialogues follows deminers, body searchers, environmentalists, and animal activists who navigate the wreckage, striving to quantify the tragedy’s impact and restore Ukraine’s fragile ecosystems.
