BBC Storyville - A House Made of Splinters (2022)

In a ramshackle house near the front line in war-torn eastern Ukraine, a group of women run an orphanage. Children whose homes have been shattered by poverty, violence and alcohol can safely stay there for up to nine months until a decision is made on whether to return them home, foster them or move them to another orphanage. This documentary follows the experience of one child as she checks in and the staff who work tirelessly to look after her and the other youngsters in their care.
