In this war-worn and impoverished corner of Eastern Ukraine where addiction casts a long shadow, there sits a safe haven for children temporarily removed from their parents.

/A House Made of Splinters/ follows three kids awaiting their fate: will they go back or move on to a new home, while a group of dedicated social-workers create small moments of joy and respite from childhoods all but lost.

Filmmaker Simon Lereng Wilmont returns with a follow-up to his acclaimed first feature, /The Distant Barking of Dogs/, offering a unique look into how the long-term consequences of war in a society already under strain impact the most vulnerable.

/A House Made of Splinters/ (2022) directed by Simon Lereng Wilmont.
