Hear POV's A House Made of Splinters director Simon Lereng Wilmont break down an impactful scene from his film.
In the shadow of war by the frontlines in Eastern Ukraine, a safe haven provides refuge for children who have been temporarily separated from their parents. A House Made of Splinters chronicles three displaced kids who, despite the perils surrounding them, find moments of joy, friendship, and childhood wonder, with the aid of dedicated social workers who work tirelessly to protect them from harm. In this scene, the children's mother comes to visit, leading to an emotional reunion.
Major support for Behind the Lens has been provided by the Open Society Foundations—working for more than three decades to advance justice, inclusion, and human rights.
