When Ukrainian feminist and activist Diana Berg enters my life, my boundaries expand. Through our polyamorous relationship, I rediscover Ukraine after years in Germany. If polyamory exists, could "polyhomery" too?
In 2018 I met Diana Berg, a Ukrainian feminist in Mariupol. This encounter marks the beginning of a personal journey, documented in this film. After more than a decade of living in Germany I rediscover my homeland, Ukraine. Between Mariupol and Berlin, Diana and I navigate a polyamorous relationship, balancing the boundaries of love and belonging. For both Diana and me, home carries existential weight, though we experience it differently. Diana has lost her home twice—first in Donetsk, occupied by russia in 2014, and again in Mariupol in 2022—while I am a migrant by choice. I call this condition "polyhomery". But what does home mean? Can home, like love, exist in multiple places at once?
