A girl in a silenced, nearly abandoned city, with nothing but her phone, she began to record the final days that felt like the end of everything. This is a war diary, raw, fragmented, intimate, and real. It captures the dread and beauty of surviving through isolation, violence, and the haunting quietness of a vanishing world. Shot in the streets and indoors during the active conflict, this film is not only a testimony to survival, but to the act of documenting when all else collapses.
