Paci films the supposedly carefree play of children in the hills of Southern England through a mirror. The idyllic (mirror) image only gradually begins to totter. The fiction of an ideal children’s world is questioned in the moment of which the mirror shatters into pieces after being shot at with a slingshot at the very end. The melancholic fragility of the final scene, in which the children sit in the branches of a plane tree and reflect the sunlight with the fragments of the mirror, can only rudimentary alleviate the fundamental brokenness.
