A russian soldier called “Grom” raped Alisa Kovalenko for four days. Before that, they beat her. They threatened to cut off her fingers and her teeth. They promised they would get to her parents, and to her boyfriend. She was 27 – a documentary filmmaker who had come to Donetsk Oblast to film the beginning of Russia’s war. A taxi driver turned her in. Her partner, the French producer Stéphane Siohan, raised the alarm in the media. The public attention saved her. She was released. She carried what happened alone for more than a year before she could say it out loud – and then became one of the first women in Ukraine to say it anyway. Russia expected that to break her. In 2022, when they came back for the rest of the country, Kovalenko first got the heroes of her unfinished film to safety. Then she volunteered for the front – a mother of a small son, serving as an assault infantry soldier. She put it as simply as it can be put: “When you see even one form of Russian evil, you understand that it must be stopped at any cost.” They wanted a victim. They got a soldier.
