About This Movie
A House Made of Splinters captures a raw and poignant slice of life in a temporary shelter for abandoned children in eastern Ukraine. Directed by Simon Lereng Wilmont, the film’s atmosphere is both haunting and tender, with a pacing that allows viewers to linger on the small moments of joy and despair. The social workers are portrayed with a kind of quiet heroism, conveying deep empathy amidst the chaos. The modest setting itself feels like a character—run-down yet filled with warmth. The children’s stories unfold gradually, each a testament to resilience despite their harsh realities. It’s not just a documentary; it’s an intimate look at human connection in troubling times, leaving a lasting impression through its understated yet powerful visuals.
