Short film to be shown in UK schools to highlight plight of child refugees ahead of Ukraine war first anniversary

London: In a bid to highlight the plight of child refugees, schools across UK will screen a short film called Home which has been created to mark the first anniversary of the Ukraine war.

Non-governmental aid agency Save the Children has partnered with animation studio Aardman to create the film which will sensitise students about the experiences refugee children across the world have to withstand when they separate from their friends and families to start a new life in a new country and schools.

As the Russian invasion of Ukraine is set to complete a year, the short film hopes to encourage students and parents to encourage and welcome refugees to UK.

About the movie

Home is a four-minute-long animated movie that looks at how young students can welcome refugee friends into a classroom and learn about their cultures.

The movie emphasises children who have fled countries like Afghanistan, Yemen, Syria and more recently Ukraine.

To mark the one-year anniversary of the war in Ukraine, we’ve collaborated with @savechildrenuk on a short film to highlight the experience of refugee children around the world.
