Documentary Screening: Children in the Fire

Join us for a free community screening of Children in the Fire as we mark four years since Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine. This gathering offers a moment of remembrance, reflection, and solidarity in honor of the lives disrupted by war and the children growing up in its shadow.

Ukrainian National Home of Jersey City | 90 Fleet Street, Jersey City, NJ

A Q&A with Oscar-nominated director Evgeny Afineevsky (Winter on Fire) will follow the screening.

We are proud to be part of the Ukrainian World Congress’s global initiative “Stand With Ukraine. Protect Future Generations.”

About the film
Children in the Fire is a powerful collective war diary told through the voices of Ukrainian children, proving that age and size have no bearing on inner strength. The award-winning documentary blends live-action footage with striking animation by Ukrainian artists.

Runtime: 1 hour 48 minutes
Language: Ukrainian with English subtitles

Content warning: This documentary includes depictions of war and may be emotionally difficult for some viewers.
