Depiction of the aftermath of the Russian aggression against Ukraine, which, at its core, tells a story of everyone who had to face the fragility of their safe space, and discover that the invincible home lies within.

What does a home feel like? Is it the smell of a homemade meal on the table, the sound of a cat purring in your lap? Using mixed reality with meticulous care, Fragile Home transforms an anonymous space into a warm, cozy household of a Ukrainian family. The viewers are invited to take things at their own pace, allowing them to explore the environment with curiosity and connect to the non-present inhabitants through picking up their photos on the wall or reading their birthday cards. However, while exploring their home, something sinister starts to happen.
