Mass media coverage of the war in Ukraine has shocked the world. Russia’s invasion in 2022 marked a significant escalation point in the Russo-Ukrainian War, which began in 2014. For those living in Donbas and Crimea the harsh reality of war has been present since 2014. Over the past decade it has become one of the most devastating modern conflicts in Europe since the Second World War.
in February 2022 Russia launched a full-scale Invasion into Ukraine. We are so frustrated, we are shocked. I woke up from my mom's call she said the war has started. During some, some of those moments I feel like I was actually ready to die I appreciate every moment because in my situation any moment could be the last.
Spanning the period since the 2022 invasion, IWM North’s Big Picture Show uses powerful real-life stories to highlight the experiences of 15 young Ukrainians, exploring their lives as they try to find normality, living their ordinary lives through extraordinarily challenging times.
Told through their own social media posts, their stories are shared through images and footage capturing the reality of what everyday life is like for young Ukrainians caught up in war.
