The Mist (Імла)

Ukraine, February 24, 2022. A regular winter morning transforms into an extraordinary event, and everyday life becomes part of a great war.

Explosions, sirens, queues, shelters. Evacuation, roads, checkpoints, volunteering. To stay or to leave? Which direction to run? There's a river beyond the forest and a bridge beyond it, but you can't see it. In case of heavy fog, try to follow the sounds.
