The First Days(2023)

The First Days is a drama anthology series drawn from true events in Kyiv during the first weeks of the Russian invasion in February 2022. As half the city's population fled, the other half stayed behind. Each episode follows a different person or family navigating the chaos of war—their stories shift between moments of dark humor, devastating loss, quiet resilience, and unexpected hope. The series captures the raw, unfiltered reality of ordinary people confronting extraordinary circumstances, from the mundane struggles of daily survival to the profound moral choices that define them. Raw and deeply human, The First Days documents a pivotal moment in modern history through the eyes of those who lived it.
