The story is about russian propaganda and its impact on the occupied city of Kherson. It explores the values, concepts, and ideological orientations of the “russian world.” Beneath the arches of the 18th-century Lower Gate of the Pechersk Fortress are bright flags of the russian federation and the “Kherson Republic,” along with stacks of propaganda printed materials, fake publications, and “religious” leaflets. This serves as evidence of the long-term preparation of the russian ideological machine to influence Ukrainians.
