The Limits of Waiting

Stories of people from Crimea and Donbas who went missing as a result of the military conflict in the east of Ukraine. The documentary follows two families affected by Russia's military aggression: the family of a Crimean activist who was abducted on the eve of the annexation of Crimea, and a mother from Lutsk whose two sons, volunteers in the Aidar Battalion, disappeared at the beginning of the armed conflict in Ukraine's East. Both stories reflect the fate of many Ukrainian families who have lost their homes, loved ones, and a sense of security since early 2014 when Crimea was annexed by Russia and the Donbas was disrupted by Russia-supported separatists and elements of the Russian Army.
