The Childhood of War: A Glimpse into the Unseen The Chechen wars of the 1990s left a lasting impact on Vladlena Sandu's childhood, a trauma that still resonates through her feature debut, "Memory Review".
This film, part documentary and part imaginative flight, offers a unique perspective on the devastating effects of war on children.
By sharing her own experiences through striking tableaux and diaristic voiceovers, Sandu sheds light on an often overlooked aspect of conflict: its impact on the youngest victims.
