What a question! And who could answer it? This film takes us down an unusual path. Children take us into their world, their lives and show us what really matters to them, what they love, what is important to them, what makes them laugh and what makes them cry. Seven children from around the world develop their own answers. They tell us their stories: with amazement for the world around them and the desire to make a difference. What does it mean to be a child today? How does it feel to face the world and the future? What do children see before they forget how to ask the questions that no one can really answer? A film about childhood and the universe of children. Authentic and serious, with the power of imagination, subtlety and humor. Stories by children for children. And for adults too. A film about a world that often remains hidden to grown-ups. A mirrored view of the world and a trip back to one’s own childhood. Watching children’s thoughts.
