The invasion triggered a mass exodus of Ukrainian civilians with people fleeing to Poland — half of them being teenagers or younger. The documentary brings viewers just miles from the Ukraine-Poland border and documents the lives of these teen refugees working through unimaginable trauma while maintaining hopefulness for their country and futures.

Filmmaker Nathaniel Lezra discusses how Ukrainian youth refugees are grappling with their families left behind, managing their mental health, coming of age in a new country, and preserving their own culture. MTV is also partnering with Choose Love to empower viewers to support young people who have been impacted by the war in Ukraine.
