    • Synopsis
    • This feature length animation film is inspired by two short stories by the Croatian turn of the century writer Dinko Šimunović: The Rainbow and The Horseman. It tells an universal and perennial story about sufferings of children through history, but above all about their sufferings in those eternal, hidden wars that are not usually talked about: the wars between generations, the wars smoldering beneath the surface, sparked by eternal parents' desire to dominate their offspring and children's desire for free themselves and shape their own lives. In these hidden wars children are inevitably losing party, sacrificial lambs, so to speak.
