The bizarre year of Maria, who fled Ukraine in February and now has her own place in the Netherlands

Losing your life from one day to the next. Unimaginable? The harsh reality for Maria (30) and her two small children.

Fled from the bombs in their homeland Ukraine, left their father and husband behind and moved six times in a short time.

And they try to build a new life out of the mess of their old life. “But how do you do that when so many people are suffering at home?”
