Synopsis

Belgium's outstanding Oscar nomination is brilliantly filmed from a child's eye view.

Seven-year-old Nora and her big brother Abel are back to school. When Nora witnesses Abel being bullied by other kids, she rushes to protect him by warning their father. But Abel forces her to remain silent.
