Synopsis
Views towards the sea, insights into secrets rooms, going down to town, diving into books. In this playful documentary we follow four children in their daily life, on the top of a hill in the Chilean coastal town of Valparaiso. Poetic photography takes us through changes of moods, winds, weather and thoughts. Being little, being big, being strictly brought up or not having a friend. The childrens' storytelling is strengthened by their own reality based comic strips and it all culminates with the printing of their own magazine.
