AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'On the steps of Swedish Parliament, a young girl sits and looks at the stars while the world watches. On the other side of the world, another girl, Izzy, is caught between a firestorm and a media storm that threaten everything she knows. Do these girls have bright and wonderful futures, or is the world a lost cause?

'Set against the 2020 Australian fires, 'Very Happy Children' explores with humour & compassion climate change activism, young love, and uncertain futures through the lens of fire & water.'
