Status: finish

The last days of World War II. During a raid on a farm house by enemy soldiers, a handful of children hide out in a deserted shed. Since a single cough would endanger the entire group, this highly sensitive moment brings the children to their limits.
Threatened by the danger from outside, they communicate only with looks and gestures but the noise caused by the soldiers and the villagers induce feelings and reactions of panic.
