Score:
On New Year's Eve, Nastya was six years old when their house was bombed by the Russian army. For her and other children, war became a daily reality. To return to normal life, Nastya needs the help of a psychologist; she suffers from post-traumatic stress disorder. But she does not give up on her dreams; like every girl, she wants a big house, a pet, and an education. This painfully recent Ukrainian film shows children in the Donetsk region. Every morning they must wade through the mountains of ruins and bombed out buildings. These rubble heaps are not only where the film takes place, but also a symbol of the used up and abandoned human lives. The documentary premiered at the Berlinale just before the outbreak of the war in Ukraine. At that time, official statistics showed 10,000 children living in the war zone…
