Discover our new film
The film is based on the real-life experiences of the families ShelterBox supported in Syria and Türkiye after the devastating earthquakes earlier this year, and raises awareness of the threat that winter poses to people fleeing conflict and disaster.
With a story written by Sarah Tagholm, illustrated by Karen George and read by Imelda Staunton
