If I could fly - Voices of children

If I could fly explores the trauma of a young girl, who fled from war with her sister and mum, leaving behind her dad. In her nightmares, she learns to fly. Flying symbolizes her escape from the fear caused by the war. When she shares these dreams with her little sister, who naively assumes that the dreams are beautiful and exciting, the 4-year-old asks her sister, "Why don't you fly to Papa?"

In her dreams, our heroine flies to her father at the front and asks him why he can't come home. The film views the war through the eyes of children. It does not judge or take sides. It simply describes: What would be the simplest solution from the perspective of a 4-year-old? She just wants her dad to come home.
