A Story of Friendship, War and ResilienceWhen Russia launches its full-scale invasion of Ukraine, Tetyana’s life in Lviv changes overnight. Air raid sirens, uncertainty, and concern for loved ones on the frontline become part of everyday reality. In Amsterdam, her friend Marlon reaches out with a simple question: 'How are you and your family?' Their exchange marks the beginning of a remarkable conversation that continues through years of upheaval, loss, resilience, and change.Drawn from four years of messages, Parallel Lives chronicles the lived experience of war through the eyes of two women whose lives unfold in parallel yet profoundly different circumstances. As they share their fears, hopes, challenges, and small victories, their correspondence becomes a space of refuge, understanding, and mutual support.Part memoir, part testimony, and part celebration of human connection, Parallel Lives offers an intimate perspective on wartime Ukraine while exploring universal themes of friendship, courage, sisterhood, grief, and healing. It is a story about the power of being present for one another and how compassion can endure even in the most difficult times. 6
