A distance of 769 kilometres is what separates a bakery in Kyiv from New York, an occupied town in the Donetsk region of Ukraine. This is where bread baked by people with mental disabilities ends up. Although they struggle with their own difficulties, their work saves locals in frontline territories, in war-torn areas cut off from supplies. The bakery is a refuge where workers can become part of a larger community, which empowers them. In wartime, there is no room for labels or social divisions – only actions matter.
