Baby Boxes, a melodrama series, is dedicated to the complicated issue of abandoned infants. It is a film about salvation and kindness, human vices and a huge will to live; it tells stories about choices and describes an opportunity to become a whole world for someone.
The first season of the series (24 episodes) was shown in spring 2016, and the audience took to it immediately. Almost 17,000,000 Ukrainians watched it on air of Ukraina TV channel, and practically at once after the premiere the work on season two started.
Each episode of the series is a story about saving a newborn infant planted in the so-called “baby box”, a special box equipped in a maternity clinic or a children’s hospital for those who would like to get rid of the infant anonymously. Our characters are doctors and medical staff of the children’s hospital who take the foundlings on, treat them, surround with kindness and care. There are also parents worth this name – those who have come to a conscious decision to become a father or a mother to someone else’s child. Still, the baby remains the central character, because it is around him or her that all the events unfold.
The series will be premiered in 2017, on air of Ukraina TV channel.
