This is the first work in the series, where the heroes did not choose bombed-out houses and burned-out cars, but rather - heartfelt memories of a place of strength, a place where they loved to spend time before the full- scale war. For Viktoriia, Andrii and Kira - these are pine trees, a beach, the Dnipro River in temporarily occupied Kakhovka. This is a projection of a photo of their home, which the family has not seen for so long. The heroes' parents are still in the occupied territory...
