Synopsis
On the outskirts of an exhausted city lives a child who works collecting rubbish, spending his days among heaps of waste searching for something that can be sold... or that might save him.
One day, he finds a broken tablet, an iPad, with a smashed screen that does not work. He decides to take it as a little treasure and starts trying to turn it on, and from one moment to the next, the screen lights up... not to show reality, but to open a door onto another world.
Through this device, the child dives into a vivid dream: he sees himself as a pupil in a clean school, carrying a bag, sitting among his peers, laughing, learning, and owning a working device like the one he found.
The film moves between two worlds:
a harsh reality full of dust, fatigue and silence,
and a pure dream, full of colours, life and opportunities.
But with each flash of the dream, the child returns to his reality... to the broken screen... to the truth.
In the end, the device goes completely dark. But something inside him does not go out.
