Synopsis

For more than a decade, photographer Artūras Morozovas documents people living through war, loss and social isolation in Lithuania and Ukraine. Gradually, the distance between observer and subject disappears. The attempt to record reality becomes a reflection on empathy, intimacy and fragile hope.
