Ukraine - Living with war | DW Documentary

- Опубліковано 20 бер 2023
- Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has changed many people’s lives beyond recognition. Missile strikes have destroyed buildings and infrastructure and killed thousands of civilians. But each day, Ukrainians are trying their best to pursue a normal life.
Journalist Vassili Golod meets Ukrainians seeking to stay positive despite the horror overtaking their country. Like electrician Oleksandr Zinchenko, who works with his colleagues to keep the power grid operating despite repeated Russian attacks. Or singer Vlada, who lost the love of her life in the war. Her partner was killed on the frontline in Bakhmut. Having no words to express her pain, she’s composing music instead and giving concerts to try to encourage other Ukrainians. Therapist Oleksandr is also busy taking care of others. He offers one week therapy programs for soldiers to help them cope with their emotions and stay as stable as possible.
We hear stories of people, stories from a warzone, told by reporter Vassili Golod. He embarks on a journey through Ukraine, also visiting Kharkiv, the city of his birth, which has been the scene of fierce bombing.

The people deserve peace, deserve to be free from this tyranny.
Absolutely, 💯 the tyranny of the United states firstly then the rest.

This affects so many. If Ukraine falls (which I'm confident it won't), the Baltic states and Moldova will be next, and so on. Support for Ukraine is not only saving one country. It's literally preventing WWIII. Putler won't stop at Ukraine.
@@Jman926 You are so correct Jeff!
I am inspired by the stoic strength of Ukrainians. Thank you for showing this to us and for making it available in North America. I would love to know the names and artists for all of the music featured during the program. I love Ukrainian music. From Chicago, USA.
YARMAK FT. TOF - МОЯ КРАЇНА
Agreed. And, you know, although I'm not Ukrainian, I grew up around a lot of Ukrainians and Ukrainian culture, because a lot of Ukrainians settled here on the Canadian prairies, so it's always been something that's around, but I never paid too much attention to it, especially when I was young.
When I got a little bit older, and travelled/lived in different parts of my country, that's when I noticed it more. This region is where there are a lot of Ukrainians, so when I lived in other places, I noticed it, just it small ways, like here perogies are a normal food, there's restaurants that specilize in them, there's fresh-made ones in the grocery store, there's always a zillion kinds of frozes ones in the grocery stores, too, but when I lived in other places in my country, places that didn't have the influence of Ukrainian/Eastern European food, they looked at me like I was craaaaazy for wanting it, it wasn't in any stores or restaurants, and some didn't even know what it was.
Incredible strength and resilience of Ukrainians is really inspiring. It's amazing how bright and positive they are despite this gruesome war, death and misery all around them. But that strong spirit will bring them stunning victory. I believe it happens soon - sooner than we all think. Loads of strength and support to our dearest neighbors
Thank you Poland for all that you do for Ukraine 🇬🇧❤️🇵🇱❤️🇺🇦🙏
To have your own relatives in Russia supporting the war must be so disgusting I cannot fathom the thought of that.
Yup, having your house destroyed then having the responsible party gaslight you must be the worst kind of pain. Decades of firing squads and gulags have wiped critical thinkers out of the Russian gene pool. No excuse tho. Fricking Russians.
It seems many, if not most people in Russia don't support this war, but they're not allowed to say anything because of course they'll get 15 years in prison. And the ones who say they support it are just brainwashed by propaganda. it's a sad situation all around. GLORY TO UKRAINE 🇺🇦
Love from Kenya 🇰🇪
❤❤❤
Brilliant delivery again from the team...I wish the war can be over...Slava Ukraine from Africa
Thank you for the documentary 🇺🇦💔
Stay strong dearest Ukraine, Georgian people are with you 🇬🇪❤️
So nice to hear, there are so many of us uniting spiritually here and elsewhere across the seas!
❤❤❤
The outlook of these people is so inspiring. I feel horrible for what they're going through.
Respect🙏 this family👪 I m from India🇮🇳 I'm respect him
One Indian student died at the beginning of the war on the outskirts of Kharkiv on Saltovka. He studied medicine in Kharkiv
Awful to watch, just wrenching, but vital to share these people's struggle.... for their common dignity and for their ability to live in autonomy. Ukrainians are simply phenomenal people, I wish them every good thing in this life. I stand with them now, and will into the future, no matter how long this wretched and criminal war lasts.
Tremendous journalism, DW .... you are such a relevant and lucid news-documentary organization.
Hear hear.
Wow I can’t thank this channel and all the hard working reporters enough for the great work their doing n covering a lot of different topics each and every day 👏👏👏🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
This is a fantastic piece of journalism . A moving insight into the everyday struggle for Ukrainians . Slava Ukraini….
Thanks for watching and for your positive feedback
Victory Ukraine from the Philippines ♥️
The strength and courage and optimism of ordinary Ukrainians is remarkable. I feel both heartbroken and inspired watching these stories. Thanks to DW for sharing them. Watching from Texas.
Same.
That was an absolutely fantastic documentary! DW keep up the good work.
The stories are inspirational, along with being very sad (like the story at the end). Thanks for bringing this to the world.
Thank you for watching and supporting our work.
As a finn & will forever support anyone defending themselves against russia. We know how ukraine feels. We know that giving up, becomming russia is nothing anyone outside russia would want..
🙏🏻 I’m American but I feel Sameway! It sickens me what Russia is doing…. I know my country’s government hasn’t always been the best but the American people want peace. I 🙏🏻 the new weapons package will help Ukraine some. And welcome to nato my friend!! It’s sad imo that y’all had to but it’s the best way to help stay protected. I will die for my fellow freedom loving people!! Slava Ukraini
Well u proberly need to be educated on this war , all u see is Russia as a boogie man bent on having the world, but ur America is the worst of them all.The truth is Russia will not take ur Finland’s Nato rules in Russia, so u Ukraine wants to be in your democracy, so don’t complain when ur getting hurt, fins need to shut that mouth and listen , Russia’s gave them there freedom 🤔but here they are turning into aNato state , they won’t get away with that , Putin’s a superpower, u cannot act like u don’t need dialogue, cause if it s war you be second best 🤕
amazing documentary. Hope is everything. ❤
As always, amazing content, specially inspirational and informative.
It’s awful enough to be on Ukrainian shoes, but even worse not make their struggles public and unnoticed.
There is no way to be indifferent after watch what Russia is inflicting to the Ukrainian brave people.
Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment.
Nonsense . U didn't feel shit when the west was destroying countries across the world .
So many wonderful and brave people... and they protect the lives of their pets as well... I love you and pray for this horrible war to end Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦
The fake war in the ukrane..ls that what you mean. ???
Beautiful people who deserve none of this. VLAD wants to recreate the Soviet Union and that won't happen. GLORY TO UKRAINE! 🇺🇦
@@Jman926 And what about zielinsky? Did you know his wife went on a shopping trip to Paris and spent 45,000 euro on clothes. What an absolute joke of a war.
@@Jman926 We have lots of Ukrainians in Ireland and the UK. They mostly get drunk, smoke weed and collect welfare cheques. Oh and live in free houses specially built for them, that we the tax payer have to fund.
And pray for all the tax payers who have to fund all these Ukrainians living in Europe in hotels, getting 3 meals a day and having a ball doing nothing.
I love watching content like this. It gives me hope to get around hard times 🙏🏾
As always an amazing documentary by DW 👍. Ukrainians are very brave & resilient people.I hope this awful war ends as soon as possible so that Ukrainians could return back to their normal life again.
Thank you for watching and for taking the time to share your thoughts on this:)
incredibly brave people
As a mother...I would not be able to function...I would collapse into a ball and just stay there 😭
Glory to Ukraine from Canada.
The prayers are with you. ❤

The responsible must bring to justice. War must stop
Outstanding production!!!
Showing the human side of this horrific invasion is what is needed to make it real and touch the people around the world. Every civilized person needs to pitch in and help Ukraine defeat this fascist invasion.

To my Ukrainian brothers “In the midst of winter, I found there was, within me, an invincible summer. And that makes me happy. For it says that no matter how hard the world pushes against me, within me, there’s something stronger - something better, pushing right back.”
― Albert Camus
so sad to see kharkiv like that. its a very special city architecturally
I pray for peace for you all night long. I hold a round crystal in my hand and imagine it being the world. Peace. Love. Respect. Light to the world and all the creatures who live here.
This is the most amazing video. Just put yourself in this situation. I can not imagine. You all are amazing heroes
This was a brilliant documentary, thank you. I have no doubt Ukraine will be victorious, the people are just amazing, I look forward to visiting in the near future 💙💛 Slava Ukraini. Love from the UK 🇬🇧 ❤

Beautiful Ukrainian people! Love from America ❤
In everything there's a season, just keep looking up, there's one who sees everything. Keep on, press toward Hope.

@@mikaellindroos1594 Finland, NATO welcomes you with open arms. From the US.
Don’t blame yourselves for your government’s actions 🇬🇧❤️🇺🇦🙏
@@leav388 Yeah as soon as we dumped sweden we went on 😅
They must feel so alone. Even if the west is giving them arms to fight, they have to do it themselves. They are the ones living in a war strikkken zone and we say ‘how strong they are etc’ but this comment is not giving them electricity, water, gas and stopping the war and giving them back a house. What to do to help them really, but really help them to return to a normal life 😢
It’s a feeling of helplessness but we can keep Ukraine in our thoughts and prayers. Not enough I know but Ukraine will prevail over evil ❤️🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🙏
My heart aches for all of Ukraine's suffering. At the same time, they're showing us all so much about humanity, courage, compassion and determination - and they do it with laughter.
Plus Ukrainian music has a unique undertone and is emotive and catchy.
Like many, I'd love to visit one day and meet the amazing people who we're standing alongside in support.
Thank you DW for this important documentary.
Excellent documentary. I'm American, but I know Russian very well. I've learned some Ukrainian. I could understand when people were speaking Russian. Interesting vignettes into the lives of the people dealing with the terrible situations. I wish they'd get the war over (with). I don't understand why they can't end it.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts and experiences.
Glory to Ukraine! Glory tothe heroes!
Glory to the Russian military, glory to the Wagner group, may God bless India & Russia.
THANK YOU SO MUCH TO EVERYONE FOR SHARING YOUR PERSONAL STORIES WITH US ❤❤❤
I WISH YOU ALL PEACE HEALTH LOVE & UKRAINE BEING STRONG AND FREE AGAIN ❤❤❤❤
GREETINGS FROM UNITED STATES 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲♥️😘😘😘😘
just an incredible documentary, thanks for enlightening me
Psychiatrist helping soldiers stay sane enough to keep fighting. Jesus, what a time we're living in.😢
How wonderful they have 80 of those psychiatric facilities! I’m glad to see their kind care of their soldiers.
Why the world is so unfair my heart is pain when everytime i watch about the war in ukraine this country and the people is so very nice very good heart then why? I love ukraine before i wish myself to come there because there country looks like paradise for me and i love ukrainian people❤️ i love ukraine from philippines.
Excellent reporting. Thank you! Slava Ukraini❤
So sad it breaks my heart to see these people suffering and for what? Who is doing this and why just why😢😮❤
Putin and his minions.
Breaks my heart to see what russia has brought to this land under their false pretences.
I wish Ukrainians peaceful skies 🩵💛
An amazing documentary, thank you so much! ❤
Thank you DW! An excellent and informative documentary but very tearful to watch!
Thanks for watching and sharing your positive feedback :)
Thank you, DW for your incredible work!
Thank you for watching:)
As a mother it breaks my heart that we have to talk about war and that our children ultimately have to suffer all due to the selfishness of government.
DW DOCUMENTARY BEAUTIFUL UKRAINE AND BEAUTIFUL STORY MUSIC IS A STRESS RELIEVER 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Thank you for commenting and for your positive feedback:)
Thank you for showing me and I am sad but pray that Ukraine 🇺🇦 ✌️🙏 will have victory ✌️
The music is beautiful
Thanks DW for a very good reportage.
🇮🇩❤️🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦
No to criminal war russia....Russia will be rewarded for what it did…God will definitely punish Russia and the countries that support it
Amen! Russia will be punished by God and international tribunal
Sad thing is probably 80% of citizens from either country don't want anything to do with this.
It’s a lie. russians love their government. They have been enjoying bringing war to all neighboring countries for decades.
Unfortunately 80% of Russians want this. Brainwashed
What ?
They appreciate you men more then you know THANK YOU FOR doing what you do!!
Thank you
🗽🇺🇸 Great reporting! We stand with Germany to help Ukraine🧑🤝🧑👬👭👫🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇸🇺🇸🇩🇪🇩🇪 🫂with much Love 🙏
Vladimir may not have remorse but he must be having regrets. Not for the harm he is doing in Ukraine, he couldn't care less about that, but the harm to his reputation and for the laughing stock which his military has turned out to be.
Why is NATO not invading this weak Russia and crush the army?
@@dewizard5761 because russia have nukes which is literally the 1 thing keeping them relevant
@@rickywilcox7358 well if USA didn’t have nukes they won’t bully a lot of countries
@De Wizard im not really pro russia or America, i think America and the west in general are massive hypocrites when it comes to war. But russia have more nukes than any other country and thats what changes America's approach towards russia.
@@dewizard5761 Because NATO is strictly a defensive force and does not invade unless there was a direct attack on 1 of it’s members.
The Ukrainian people just amaze me. So strong, so brave and yes so resilient. They give me hope and remind me how very very very blessed I am. I wish I wasnt so old and sick because I would like to visit Ukraine some day. So please keep the videos coming, its the only way I will ever get to know these remarkable people. slava ukraini!!!!!!!
DW producing the most powerful documentaries on this conflict hands down. That poor musician who lost her bf. That really stung me.
Thanks for watching, we’re happy to hear you are enjoying the docu :)
I’m not from Ukraine, but my heart hurts just as well. We are all equal and living in one nation under God’s eyes. Horrible. Just horrible.
I still can't believe that so many Russians think that Ukraine is Shelling their own Cities and People. Look - At most 5-10% of weapons either misfire or get shot down by Anti-Aircraft Weapons and miss their targets. But, it's not only absurd, but cruel to tell innocent people that their own Army is killing their own people on purpose. That just infuriates me !!
What doesn't kill you, makes you stronger. I don't know how it ends, but with a much stronger Ukraine and it's experienced soldiers.
This truly inspired me to appreciate life god bless Ukraine 🇺🇦 🙏
Thats truly depression on a morbid scale...
Wow well done ,,Thank You for this,, people don’t realize how fortunate we are,😢
Good music.Greater hearts✊🏻
Glory to a free and independant Ukraine!
Glory to Ukraine 🇬🇪🇺🇦✊
Hoping for peace and an end to all the bloodshed, in this awful situation 🙏🏼
Heartbreaking for ordinary people caught up in this insanity 😢
1:30 my heart just melted 🥹😭
God bless this family
Amazing Ukrainians...🇿🇦🕊🇺🇦...2023
The Ukrainian people are truly resilient and tough, they will never give up their freedom. How do I know this? My wife's Grandfather was Ukrainian and she has inherited these character traits, along with stubbornness, a will to succeed and also to do the right thing. These are the qualities that have kept them in the fight and prevented Moscow from completely taking over their Country.
Слава Україні, Героям Слава!!🇺🇦🇺🇦✌️✌️
The most important thing in this documentry is you,Ukrainian people living on
Thank you from the heart,a very good documentary to watch. im from NZ .
8:00 have been a catalyst never wrote so many songs .. strength to process trauma ..
Love from denmark. Thoughts to Ukraine in this dark time 🇺🇦❤️
how sad it is that the kiosk coffee owner has to breathe in the diesel fuel vapours. so carcinogenic. God, please help these precious souls.
What brave people !!!!
Hope ❤peace will arrive soon to all of Ukraine's territory🎉😊🌎🌏🌍🐞No to War, Peace to Ukraine!
Interesting how many of us watch European media now. We used to be only interested in regional and national news but now it matters what is going on in the whole world. Must have been like this during WW2
Totally. My head and heart are now in Ukraine.
DW is an amazing example of noble prize quality journalism. Love the music. Glory to Ukraine
Thanks for watching and for the positive feedback. Have a nice weekend! :)
The sheer amount of approving and rejoicing comments of ordinary Russians under videos of the atrocities committed against civilians in Ukraine were no less a shock for Ukrainians than the war itself.
We have somehow got used to the war, but the realization of who we have been living next to all this time, without even knowing it, is still terrifying.
Those creatures call themselves our brothers. Imagine what they would do to you who they call their enemies if you let them.
It’s terrifying to contemplate.
So sad 😢
This whole video breaks my 💔but Ukraine will get the freedom and happiness they deserve Slava Ukraini 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦
Yes it is hear tbreaking leaving so many feeling so so sad .
