Shelter (2021 Film)

A shelter can serve as a home or be provided by a residential institution. It can be understood as both a temporary and a permanent structure.

In the context of Maslow's hierarchy of needs, shelter holds a crucial position as one of the fundamental human necessities, complementing other physiological imperatives such as the need for "air, water, food, rest, clothing, and reproduction."
