Director & Producer: Raúl de la Fuente Calle,

 Amaia Remírez

At the age of 15, Chennu committed his first crime: being a street child. And he walked into hell: Pademba Road. The adults prison in Freetown. Hell is ruled by Mr. Sillah, and the prisoners abandon all hope. Chennu got out after 4 years. And now he wants back.

12-year-old Tatheer embarks on a week-long Police boot camp for girls from a social housing estate in Copenhagen. Far from home, deep in the woods, she navigates grueling rituals, elusive social dynamics, and personal setbacks to find her place in this tender and revealing coming-of-age story.
