Children (PG)

CHILDREN is not just a film about war or emigration. It is a story about a generation growing up between two worlds, learning to find its place in a new reality while holding on to its roots. It is also a story of a mother’s love, as she stands by her child through uncertainty, offering reassurance, strength and a sense of belonging wherever they go.

The sequel to the documentary film WOMEN delves into the lives of Ukrainian children who fled their homeland with their mothers because of the war. Three years have passed since they began adapting to life in the United Kingdom. How has the war changed them? What have they lost and what have they gained in their new home?
