Description
Astronaut Paul flies to the moon. Lisa, a scientist, accompanies him. Every afternoon, 12-year-old Lisa has a get-together with her six-year old brother Paul. He is suffering the incurable "Disease of the Moon" and has to stay inside the house. As a pastime, Lisa has invented a game, and in their imagination Paul is a spaceship captain who travels around, lost in space. But when Lisa falls in love for the first time, she feels conflicted by her new feelings towards Simon and her worries about her brother.
Theme
The film is about growing up, first love and the power of imagination. At the same time “Children of the moon” depicts difficult themes such as illness, death and grief in an imaginative and sensitive way and is therefore also appropriate for a younger audience.
