This was a very hard to watch doc. It's all about a shelter for kids in eastern Ukraine where everyone has lost their jobs since the war started. So many kids are all alone because their parents have fallen to alcoholism and in many cases abuse.
The worst part is seeing how the kids are traumatized and so likely to grow up to live the same upsetting lives as their parents. Dreadful. This was not my favorite watch.
