Lawyer by education, amateur pianist Igor Mykhailyshyn, having traveled all over the Maidan, decided to go to war and in 2014 became a volunteer of the Donbas Battalion. After the training camp he became a grenade launcher and served in a platoon under the command of “Lermontov”. He spent 120 days in captivity, 5 times he was promised to be exchanged, but in vain: “Then I understood and wrote about it in the book” Fugue 911 “, that hope is a treacherous feeling in captivity. She takes on a lot of emotions that are not justified. You wait, you hope, nothing happens – and you’re exhausted, you don’t care. ” But in captivity, all the prisoners tried to support each other, says Igor. “For example, when a fighter came or was brought in black from interrogation because he was beaten, we all approached him and told some jokes, even tried to joke about those beatings, and he also laughed through tears with us.”
