Recently, one such heartwarming video surfaced on the internet, bringing solace to many users. The viral clip shows a young artist playing the piano while air raid sirens blare outside Lviv Railway Station.

Photojournalist John Stanmeyer captured the heartwarming moment on camera, which showed the Ukrainian pianist playing louder in response to an air raid warning. In the viral video, the pianist, identified as Alex, refuses to flee after the warning and continues to play Hans Zimmer’s Time.

The tune played by Alex, which is part of Zimmer’s original score from Christopher Nolan’s film Inception, displays a “simple, overwhelming one-minute passion against fear, against war”, according to the caption of the video shared by Stanmeyer.
