When Mariupol fell in 2022, “Rasti” was one of thousands of Ukrainian defenders dragged into Russian captivity, then seemingly erased. For 2.5 brutal years, he says he knew only torture, beatings and isolation, never sure if he’d see daylight again. This video traces his journey from the steel city’s ruins to secret cells, prisoner swaps and, finally, his return home. Scarred but unbroken, Rasti chooses to go back to the front.
