, , , ,

Amid ongoing air raid alerts and drone attacks, Kyiv’s underground music scene refuses to fall silent. This short documentary enters the heart of Ukraine’s heavy music community, where grindcore and death metal shows continue to take place despite the constant pressure of Russia’s war against Ukraine. During a weekend gig at the well-known Volume Club, the story introduces Tsytska, an all-female band emerging from the city’s resilient underground scene.
