Our Back Lane
In the thick of the pandemic in Spring of 2020, schools and parks are closed. Streets are deserted and children are confined at home trying to kill boredom as best as they can do. Olivier, 5, spends his time drawing while his neighbour, Clémentine, 9, seeks for a meaning in school closures. When hot Spring's warmer days finally show up, the back alley suddenly becomes busy with children who turned it into a makeshift playground. Strong bounds will come out of this new microcosme. A moving tribute to children’s resilience in the face of adversity.
