As the conflict in Ukraine continues, thousands of civilians remain trapped in communities close to active fighting. Escaping the Frontlines follows the volunteers risking their lives to evacuate vulnerable people from the frontlines around the city of Izium, helping them reach safety amid the uncertainty and danger of daily conflict. Directed and presented by Jon Hozier-Byrne, this powerful documentary offers a rare insight into the courage, resilience and humanity of those working on the frontlines of a humanitarian crisis. Through intimate access and first-hand testimony, the film captures the difficult decisions faced by civilians forced to leave their homes, and the determination of the volunteers who refuse to leave them behind. This episode is the sixth part of the Concern Documentaries series, bringing audiences closer to the realities of life in some of the world's most challenging environments, and highlighting the people working to support communities affected by conflict and crisis.
