Production company: Mybosswas & Laranja Azul

A 360 immersive fairytale, set amongst mothers and children who live in prison. A magical journey in their everyday life, with animations of their surreal memories of the past and dreams of the future, created through collaborative process.

« When I first visited a new soft custody institute for mothers and children living together in prison, unexpected sounds seeped into my ears without giving time to prepare. Screams, alarms, squeaky gates, opening and closing doors create a special atmosphere where the environment hardly attunes to what eyes can perceive. [...] In strict collaboration with the protagonists, mothers and children, we built an experimental documentary to express their points of view and their sense of space in a confinement. But we also want to show their fantasies of escape, the shelters, the fears and dreams. Emotions and desires that are universal and concern the childhood of each of us.» - Rossella Schillaci, director.
