The invitation
Have you wondered what the experience of war is really like? Have you thought about what underlies resilience in the face of adversity revealed to the world by Ukrainians in the last years? About the responsibility and calling for Europe and Europeans in these times of great change?
Join us for a special afternoon at the Emerge Lakefront Project in Stockholm featuring original film screening of the Letters from Ukraine, Letter 1: The Pulse of Ukraine, followed by an intimate exchange with filmmaker Tetiana Staneva.
The film offers an intimate portrait of the personal and human experiences of living the war. It is a tale of the fierce battle between life and death, about the struggle for survival, the preservation of values and the recovery of hope and moral imagination.
In the exchange to follow the screening, we will also explore firstly, the power of the individual and networked capacity to act for the common good: "subjektnist" in Ukrainian. We will also reflect on the solidarity and fracturing across European societies, and through an embodied process, step into the transformative power of witnessing which can enable action.
The event is realised as part of the series Seeing Through The War: Spaces of Pain, Spaces of Healing initiated by the Gergina Foundation and co-missioners.
