On resilience, ruins, and the silent trauma of war

In eastern Ukraine, where war has reduced towns to rubble, children grow up among ruins. Boney Piles follows Nastya and Yarik, two young inhabitants of a devastated landscape, navigating their daily lives with disarming resilience and imagination. Their world—scarred by bombed-out homes and fractured memories—becomes a surreal mix of play and survival.

Shot before Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022, Taras Tomenko’s quietly powerful film captures the slow, haunting presence of conflict. It is a study in endurance and a portrait of place, where architecture becomes a remnant of both past violence and persistent hope.

Presented by Ukrainian Architect Maksym Rokmaniko, Director of Center for Spatial Technologies and part of the group Forensic Architecture.

A film by Taras Tomenko
Year: 2022, length: 80 min.
Introduction in English, film in Ukrainian with English subtitles.

Om modstandskraft, ruiner og krigens stille traume

I det østlige Ukraine, hvor krigen har lagt byer i ruiner, vokser børn op midt i ødelæggelsen. Boney Piles følger Nastya og Yarik, to unge beboere i et sønderbombet landskab, der med rørende modstandskraft og fantasi navigerer i deres hverdag. Deres verden – præget af sønderskudte hjem og brudstykker af minder – bliver en surrealistisk blanding af leg og overlevelse.

Filmen er optaget før Ruslands fuldskala-invasion af Ukraine i 2022, og Taras Tomenkos stille, men stærke film indfanger konflikternes langsomme, hjemsøgte nærvær. Det er et studie i udholdenhed og et portræt af et sted, hvor arkitekturen bliver et vidnesbyrd om både tidligere vold og vedvarende håb.

Præsenteres af den ukrainske arkitekt Maksym Rokmaniko, director ved Center for Spatial Technologies og medlem af gruppen Forensic Architecture.

En film af Taras Tomenko

År: 2022, varighed: 80 min.
