Synopsis:

Vahid , a ten-year-old African boy manages to escape from the clutches of the paramilitary on the very day he is to be initiated as a boy soldier. He arrived in Spain by clinging to the bottom of a lorry. Xion Li, a sixteen-year-old girl of Asian origin steals to survive each day after escaping from a child prostitution network. Both are captured in the streets of a city and sent to a Detention Centre for Young Foreigners. There they meet dozens of boys and girls from different countries, each one with their dream, each with a story and all of them fearful that European laws will send them back to their own countries. One night Xion Li and Vahid escape from the centre together with 60 other young people.

A feature film written, designed, interpreted, directed and edited by 100 children and adolescents from Europe, Latin America, North America, Asia, the Middle East and Africa. Lead by the children´s film school, Orson the Kid-Spain, in association with CIFEJ, through its Kids For Kids movement.

The film is a collection of 6 stories that portray the lack of human rights for children on every continent. It's not a documentary, nor a docudrama, nor a reality show; it's a life represented in the form of 'fiction' by the story´s own protagonists.
