As a Ukrainian drone pilot, Kara spent thousands of hours watching the war unfold through live drone footage. Now, after years behind a screen, she is returning to everyday life. But the way she sees the world has changed: trees, rooftops and empty streets that once felt familiar can suddenly become signs of danger. The Pain of Others explores how technology is changing not only the way war is fought, but also the way we perceive the world.
Inspired by the work of philosopher Susan Sontag, this intimate 6-DOF documentary VR experience invites you to step into Kara’s perspective and discover how years of looking at war have forever changed the way she sees the world.
