Air date: Dec 16, 2024

Vadym is a charismatic inventor and factory owner who lives in the small village of Dyktalky, near Chernobyl. He moved to the region after the Russian invasion of Donbass in 2014 and set up his factory which immediately put him on a collision course with some of the locals, notably the village Mayor and her husband. Hostilities reached new heights when Vadym declared his intention to run in the mayoral elections. Then, in 2022, the Russians invaded Ukraine and everything changed.
