"I spend the night in an officer's barracks, where no woman has ever set foot"

In the darkest recesses of Ukraine, a war is raging.

A journalist takes a research trip to the front line. Teenage girls wait for soldiers on benches. A medic mourns her lover killed in action.

Bad Roads is a heartbreaking, powerful and bitterly comic account of what it is to be a woman in wartime.
