I embedded with the 59th Mechanized Brigades "Shkval" battalion, made up of volunteer recruited from the Ukrainian prison system. These convicted criminals are given a choice of waving the remainder of your time behind bars in exchange for military service until the wars end.

Zoya, a Kherson local, was attacked by a grenade dropping drone while trying to get medication from the pharmacy. She was wounded, and pulled to safety by local police. Sent for treatment for her wounds, she retells her story of her experience with the "Human Safari".

The combat engineers I was embedded with in Kherson showed me a downed FPV drone that was strapped with explosive and shrapnel. These types of drones regularly hunt and stalk the city streets of Kherson, becoming a feature of the "Human Safari" as it has become popularly known.

Excavators are used to dig trenches for infantry to burrow in as shells fly overhead, which would otherwise take much more time and manpower to dig. Ukrainian engineers are not saved from the dangers of the invasion while building fortifications. Drones hunt them all the same.

Across occupied Ukraine, Baptist congregations have had their churches shut down while their pastors are viewed with suspicion. This has led to instances of persecution for the Christian denomination that doesn't follow the religious doctrines favored by the state.

A local store clerk in Kherson talks about the experience of having mortars bomb the area around her shop, and her belief that is it connected to them flying a Ukrainian flag outside their shop.

In the Ukrainian city of Kherson there is a hunt for any signs of life. A "Human Safari" where grenade dropping and FPV drones attack soldiers, civilians, city workers, ambulance crews, all who found themselves on the city streets. I went to Kherson, to document these attacks.

Got my draft back for my documentary on the "Human Safari" in Kherson. No stream, checking for revisions. First film I've have made with a 100% original soundtrack, worked with folk and electronic musicians to get it right. Working on sound design has been really enjoyable🎵

Sumy is a launch pad for Ukrainian resistance

In my new documentary, I talk to soldiers who invaded Russia, mortar teams avoiding Russian drones, Mayors governing frontline towns, and veterans burnt by war, to understand the complicated mosaic of perspectives that exist on on a risky new front.

Merry Christmas🎄 ☃️
