Little Alien
They are teenagers who escaped from war-torn regions around the world, alone and without their parents or relatives, hoping for only one thing – to live their lives. Longing for their families, chased by fear and bad memories of pain and blood, they now have to deal with their new lives here, in a strange land. "Little Alien" tells us about their struggles through observations from the characters' points of view, about the dreams and wishes that fill their everyday lives, in a borderline state between the horrors of the past and the uncertainty of the future.
