These children put together a truly intriguing story together, also the way this juxtaposes the documentary parts and the story telling and animated parts all in one is amazing!

Beautiful story and even more breathtaking illustrations. Heartbreaking how when these children are imagining this story they are adding these traumatic elements from their lives.
