Over a period of three years, Frank Gaudlitz traveled to Moldova, Armenia, and Georgia, where he met people whose lives have been profoundly affected by the war in Ukraine. The result is around forty striking portraits, accompanied by personal interviews and quotations. Together, they offer a vivid account of the traces left by flight and displacement and highlight the very different paths individual lives can take.
