A wonderful short film, as poignant and affecting as a short can be. I watched and enjoyed it, and I can recommend it to you.

With this short, they managed to capture a wonderful performance out of our main girl here. She is in nearly every scene, and we are focused on her and her child-like outlook on everything around her. The interactions of the adults are keen, and the long shots on their faces and reactions tactfully show they understand what's going on before you do.

The close ups with the girl and those around her are so lovely that I had trouble limiting the number of screenshots I included.

No spoiler description (from ekko)

Maja, a six-year-old Serbian girl, is dropped off at kindergarten by her parents early one morning. They have just moved to Denmark, so neither Maja nor her parents can understand or speak much Danish. This is a is a short film about the little girl, who just moved to a new country with her parents. Based on a true story.
