Course. and this part of the country has been -- people have endured atrocities that we cant imagine. and yet theres this kind of sense of pride as well. resilience and tenacity. people are going forward. going back into their homes. trying to rebuild. this is all happening with a very, very uncertain near-future across the country, even here in kyiv. >> their defiance is truly inspirational, i think, something that you have been able to capture. but theres, among so much destruction, something ...

Think going through this process? >> i dont know. i think my parents are a really shining example how not to give up on the people you love, and just their tenacity throughout this process and what weve been able to get accomplished has been remarkable. >> you know, weve been watching taylor, every step of the way and it has been remarkable that they just kept pushing forward and your family really has itself to thank for pushing forward and making this outcome happen. i know your mom said treve...
