An audiovisual diary of Ukraine’s immersion into the abyss of total war, filmed during the first two years of Russia's full-scale invasion.

A documentary feature Songs Of Slow Burning Earth is made up of places, occasional characters, rare dialogues, intraframe sounds and silences which, when put together, capture the chronology of how the war became normalized. Against the backdrop of this (meta)physical landscape of collective disaster, a new generation of Ukrainians aspires to imagine the future.
