Kids of Bomb Shelters

Ukraine 2022

Genre Documentary

Director Yulіan Ulibіn

The series is about Ukrainian children and their parents who became hostages of Russian terror. Each episode is dedicated to a different story that took place in Chernihiv, Irpin, Kharkiv, Mariupol, Mykolaiv, Huliaypol and Zaporizhzhia. Most often, the film's protagonists are members of the same family — children and their relatives who were by their side after Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine.

The film is based on monologues by children and adults, interrupted by excerpts from peaceful home videos, recordings made after the outbreak of the great war, and footage by the project team showing the consequences of Russian aggression.
