"Soldiers of Song" follows the extraordinary journey of Ukraine’s most beloved musicians as they unite their war-torn nation through the transformative power of music. Amidst the chaos of Russian aggression, artists like Slava Vakarchuk (Okean Elzy), Andriy Khlyvnyuk (Boombox), Svitlana Tarabarova and Mykolai Sierga share their deeply personal experiences of resilience, hope, and defiance. Amidst air raids and missile strikes, the production team weaves these stories into a powerful narrative of hope and resistance, showcasing music’s unparalleled ability to heal and unify a nation in its darkest hour.
