Playing Adults
Kindergarten children are very adept at imitating adults, picking up on their manner of behaving and speaking, their foibles and weaknesses. The film observes the family play, in which the adult world can be seen through a distorting mirror.
The Wonderful -4
Only 11 year-old children play in this movie. Yet, the film is addressed to adults because of the change that is applied on a standard stereotype: instead of showing the relationship of an adult-teacher and a child-student, the movie focuses on how their roles can often be reversed and how a child can be a great teacher to an adult. This is what happens when children remind us the long forgotten values of childhood.
