Two short documentaries for young audiences show the experience of children whose parents decide to get a divorce. The films give voice to the young protagonists as they confront their feelings in the face of their parents' decisions and rearrange their daily lives.
After the screening young viewers can take part in a workshop. We will talk about the impact that loss can have on our lives and learn how to cope with it. Together, we will reflect on the lessons we learn from difficult situations and how they can change our lives, also in a positive way. The workshop will be led by psychotherapist Joanna Klus, a specialist in child and youth psychotherapy with over 15 years of experience helping young people overcome difficulties and supporting their development.
