Summary/Abstract: In the village of Velyka Komyšuvacha, the remnants of war are starkly visible, with destroyed schools and homes standing as silent witnesses to the conflict. Amidst the ruins, the resilience of the villagers shines through, as they return to rebuild their lives despite the lingering dangers of unexploded mines and the absence of basic infrastructure. Stories of survival and loss are shared openly, reflecting a community's collective trauma and determination. Children like Nazar Korytko, who salutes passing soldiers, embody the spirit of hope and continuity. The village, once vibrant and now a shadow of its former self, is slowly coming back to life, driven by the unwavering spirit of its inhabitants who refuse to abandon their homeland. The narrative captures the juxtaposition of destruction and renewal, highlighting the enduring human spirit in the face of adversity.
