A 5-year-old girl is confronted to the world for the first time, only armed with the codes of her childhood kingdom.
April is unhappy to move to France. From Paris, she relocates to the small medieval village where her great-grandfather lived in the South-West of the country. There, she is convinced that he is only sleeping in the cemetery and that he will come back to be with her. While waiting for him she meets his old friends. With them she will open-up to the world, discover her inner self and in turn she will transform the adults around her forever.
This event features a post-screening Q&A with director David Boaretto.
