Boys and girls in Syria, in Aleppo, in a war zone, having instead as primary need to stay united to fight close to each other. Each of them finds obstacles in the race to victory or salvation. Each of them tries to overcome them with the help of the other or by counting on their own strength, in the hope of a future to be built. A future that is the image of a solid house, not of rubble. The intent is to bring the viewer to experience the two realities at the same moment, in a continuous change of perspective that aims at the idea of ​​ a welcoming Europe. A poor cinema is used, only two actors and a few objects in an empty room but it’s rich in humanity.
