I am Mariia, an aspiring documentary filmmaker from Ukraine. The war has taken away my former life. Therefore, my colleague and I go to the frontline to film, to face the danger, to define a new meaning for ourselves and to understand how to continue living.

The Friedrich Baur Foundation, in cooperation with the Bavarian Academy of Fine Arts and the International Hof Film Festival, has awarded a commissioned scholarship to the Ukrainian documentary filmmaker Mariia Shevchenko. After the film, filmmaker and media artist Philip Gröning talks with Mariia Shevchenko.
