A hypnotic hum sounds as black and white footage shows a group of women filling bags with dried vegetables, making and vacuum packing sandwiches and weaving camouflage nets. This is not just a chat, this meeting appears to serve a higher purpose: we look at the unseen practices of wartime Ukraine. Centre for Creativity offers a hopeful perspective and shows the daily work of survival, solidarity and creativity.
