British photographer Samara Pearce accidentally learns the incredible story of her family: her great-grandfather, Austrian Alexander Wienerberger, witnessed the Holodomor in Ukraine in 1932-1933. He took historical photos of starving Kharkiv on his camera, and was able to take them as diplomatic mail to Austria. Wienerberger wanted the world to learn about the genocide of Ukrainians and stop it. After finding her great-grandfather's camera and an album with shocking photos from Ukraine, Samara rethinks her creative path. Feeling a connection with her great-grandfather, 90 years after the Holodomor, Samara goes on a creative expedition to the Kharkiv region to take her own photographs of the genocide of Ukrainians, which is still ongoing.
