OverviewListen icon

At the end of the 1980s, there were two boarding homes for children and young people with mental and physical disabilities in Estonia, Imastu and Karula, with 300 children in one, and 160 in the other. There are children of all ages here, very small and teenagers. There are those who speak and those who cannot. Who walk on their own, who crawl, who is forever chained to a bed. Most of them can only be alive. All these children long for love and care, they all deserve it. They exist, although for decades society did not want to see or hear them.
