This animated excerpt from the feature length documentary “Jamala: Songs of Freedom,” produced by Voice of America, illustrates the plight of a single mother and her children during the Soviet purge of Crimean Tatars at the end of WW2. The story is based on an account passed down three generations and told by the mother’s great granddaughter, the Ukrainian singer Jamala.
