Thank you for your work! I'm from Ukraine and I was crying, when Alketa told her path and shew stories of people who suffered from war. I consider, that all those tyrants hate life and its beauty, and I have no idea, why they continue to live on our planet

They both just ooze coolness! Great talk and I love the initiative of asking artists to pick their faves. And lovely to present interpretation and information in dialogue form.
