Slava Ukraini investigates war in a powerful, immersive VR experience that integrates found sound and war footage from the war to challenges viewers’ understanding of the impact of war, not just in terms of casualty and geopolitics, but in the way that war erodes dignity and humanity. The immersive creative documentary experience seeks to amend this erosion with immersive empathy and assertions of beauty, kindness and care, drawing to the foreground the very human flesh and blood, the songs, and cultural bones of the people who have been fiercely defending their right to exist.
