CHILDREN OF WAR is a social impact narrative, offering insight into the Ukraine conflict that has created the largest refugee crisis of the 21st century since World War Two, forcing over 14 million people to flee their homes. More than 90% of these refugees are women and children. The central themes in this short feature explore sacrifice, the moral crisis of choice, and our persistence to reclaim faith and hope in the face of adversity. There are plenty of war films about brave men and battles. What makes this story different, compelling, and unique is that it gives voice to women and children caught in the crossfire, helping us learn their perspectives and struggles. The civilian population continues to bear the brunt of indiscriminate attacks and disproportionate harm in the ongoing war. This film adds attention to the conflicts that impact millions of children worldwide from Gaza to Darfur, Myanmar and Syria. Too many lives, especially those of the children, are thrust into a war machine beyond their control. The film will engage people beyond the Ukrainian-American communities. This story will also resonate with those who enjoy history and have direct or indirect experiences with issues such as war and displacement, autism and epilepsy, childhood trauma, and military conscription.
