This documentary explores micro-violence – or subtle forms of violence – that affect children, particularly in so-called welfare societies, where such behaviour often goes unnoticed. We are talking, for example, about situations where words cause hurt, even when we do not intend to. It also addresses issues such as academic and social pressure, unfiltered access to digital content and overexposure to violence in virtual environments – factors that can have a serious impact on children’s emotional and mental health.

Far from merely offering a diagnosis, the documentary proposes a transformative approach, with practical solutions and the active involvement of adults. Through inspiring examples of communities and institutions that create safe and respectful spaces, it seeks to motivate everyone, regardless of their role, to take action for a childhood that is better protected and valued.

The overarching aim is to promote a shift in mindset that translates into concrete actions towards a more aware, fair and committed society when it comes to children’s rights. Because true well-being is not measured solely in terms of material comforts: it also requires respect, understanding and genuine support.

FICNOVA recognises this film:

For highlighting the need to learn how to overcome psychological and moral violence from childhood onwards. Behind certain words there may lie discrimination, contempt, bullying… A documentary that shows just how much progress we need to make on the inner journey from ‘Me’ to ‘Us’.
