Volodymyr Artemenko's personal connection adds a layer of authenticity that's hard to shake off. It's not just about the grief, but about community and memory, too. There's a stark, almost haunting atmosphere as the widows recount their lives, and the film doesn’t shy away from the harsh realities they faced.
