Blue Sweater with a yellow hole
Directed Tetiana Khodakivska

In doing so, it becomes a rare window into how children experience and make sense of indoctrination, memory, and identity. As their memories unfold, their sketches transform into edgy, evocative animations — capturing not only the trauma and doubts caused by re-education, but also moments of childhood wonder, joy, and adventure.
