INVASIONS 1.2.3. is a film made after the liberation of Kyiv region from the Russian occupiers in 2022. Ukrainian artist Alevtina Kakhidze meets with friends in Irpin, Muzychi, Mostyshche. Thanks to the 360° format, the reality of the Russia–Ukraine War is manifested in every inch: on the left are a destroyed bridge and houses, on the right, children are playing, a happy dog ​​Chuck and a freshly planted seedbed. In the film, Alevtina’s clothes change from mourning to festive, and at the end, she is in the kitchen wearing her home clothes, preparing dinner from the plants-occupiers. Her walk with a Kyiv scientist-botanist sheds light on another war in Ukraine — between plants.
