A FEATURE FILM BY THE SWEDISH DIRECTOR 
SOLVEIG NORDLUND


It was beautifully made, extremely funny and very moving."
The Fort Lauderdale International Film Festival

"Charming low-budgeter about a day in the life of street urchins on the tourist island Madeira is an appealing combo of indignation and humor. Carefully handled.."
Variety

A Style similar to Tati.
Expresso-Lissabon

The film is touching without becoming sentimental, thanks to its humour and rhythm.
Libération - Paris

The film depicts life on the street without indignation, but it reveals very well both sadness and happiness in this silent drama. The children are great actors and they over shadow the professional actors, who have the ungrateful task of portraying silly tourists.
Bernt Eklund, Expressen
