Story
Orths Reise macht das Leben vor Ort greifbarer. Bestsellerautor Stephan Orth hat den Krieg Russlands gegen die Ukraine von Anbeginn intensiv miterlebt. Durch seine ukrainische Freundin Julija verbindet ihn ein besonderes Band mit dem Land. Wie geht es den Menschen, die geblieben sind? Wie sieht ihr Alltag aus, was gibt ihnen Hoffnung? Und was hat das alles mit uns zu tun? Mit diesen Fragen reist er nach Kyjiw und Odesa, nach Charkiw und in die Karpaten. Er wohnt bei Einheimischen, hört ihre Geschichten, ist beeindruckt von ihrem Mut und Lebenswillen – und packt selbst beim Wiederaufbau mit an.
