Foreign correspondent Tim Judah tells the story of the human side of conflict in Europe’s second largest country, Ukraine.

Judah travelled from the Polish border in the west, through the capital city and to the eastern frontier near the Russian border. He spoke to the mothers, soldiers, businessmen, poets and politicians living through conflict and reveals a nation trapped between powerful political and historical forces.
