about the film

Five children from the Katwijk asylum seeker center are preparing for a theater performance. The performance is about a journey to a fantasy land. The children are interviewed about their own fantasies, dreams and expectations, and this is interwoven with their stories about their own ‘journies’, which have a major impact on their lives.
