Score:
A short film dedicated to the fate of Jewish children imprisoned in the Terezín ghetto (1941-1945). This story of hope and human belonging which can stand up to evil is intended primarily for children. Therefore, in its story and art form, it also uses a poetic abbreviation and hyperbole, which makes it possible to convey the most important messages to children through animation.
