History and Culture

The Ukrainian War started on 24th February, 2022 and thousands of Ukrainian refugees were either displaced or fled overseas. For Alexei, 17, and his sister, Katia, 12, life will never be the same. Before the war, Alexei, a talented musician, was invited to perform on many stages in Europe, and was finally offered a place in the prestigious Royal Academy of Music in London. But the war splits his family, and Alexei finds himself performing at night in the underground station – the only safe place to shelter from the bombs. How will his family survive?
