The war in Ukraine told through the eyes of Ukrainian women.
Synopsis
Why this war? Why are they shooting at us? Why destroy everything? Because I'm scared? Weren't they our brothers and sisters? Why do they want to kill us? Why so much hate? Why are they killing our children? Why humiliate us? Why do they take everything from us? Why do I have to run away? Why do we need to be released and rescued? Why has someone decided to delete everything?
