In Kyiv, a young woman honors a fallen soldier, Yaroslav, as Ukraine prepares for another Christmas at war amidst dwindling peace hopes and substantial losses. Iryna Shemko, a mother of two, shares her struggles living without electricity for hours daily, while families find ways to cope. Despite increased Russian strikes and a deep weariness, people continue to work, believing their country must keep going.
