Director Statement

In an era where virtuality increasingly distances us from the real world, our goal is to offer the audience a sincere portrait of life and reconnect them with simple and authentic joys. Our film aims to reclaim lost time by showing reality through the eyes of children, who with their innocence and spontaneity manage to grasp the essence of life itself. It is a project that we hope can inspire sincere reflections and stimulate a renewed awareness of our fleeting time and how to best employ it.
