Ciné-ONU: THE NEST AWAY FROM HOME

THE NEST AWAY FROM HOME
Marek Vaňous & Tomáš Hallon, SK, 2024
51 min., OmeU
This documentary film is about four Ukrainian families who found a new nest in Slovakia after the escalation of war. They are Marina, a social counsellor in Košice, Roman, a teen football player in Nitra, Elena and her family, who live in an accommodation centre in Bratislava, and Hanna, who takes care of her brother while preparing to finish her studies in Michalovce. Their stories are a testament to the resilience of people who, after having lived the worst, are hoping for the better far away from home.
Followed by a panel discussion with:
