She ran away from death... more than once. That's how one can briefly describe what actress and presenter Maria Kutnyakova went through in Mariupol after February 24, 2022.

She and her family fled from their destroyed home to the Drama Theater. A bomb hit it, so they ran to the Philharmonic... Again, shelling, explosions - danger

Mariia and her family left Mariupol on foot, past the mines, went hungry, but refused to be evacuated to the so-called “DPR”.

Mariia is confident that Ukraine will win, and she will celebrate with a glass of champagne.
