Thirteen-year-old Arsen dedicates almost every performance on stage to his father. The boy's father adored break dancing and has always supported his son's choice. The commander of the engineer combat platoon, Senior Lieutenant Andrii Poliakov, was killed at the front a month before his birthday.
"The whole of Kyiv was seeing the hero on his final journey," Arsen says. That day, thousands of people knelt in honor of the deceased. The boy often tells about his father. He believes that this is how he keeps the memory of him alive.
Arsen told his story during a vacation in Zakarpattia. Rinat Akhmetov Foundation provided assistance in the psychological and physical recovery of the children.
