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.

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.
