Together we are unique

Jaguar and lizard are very tired after the party, they actually have so many thoughts. They feel that something is missing. Something that they seem to have lost.
Something that they would love to have back. So owl, monkey, spider and all the other animals, decide to help them out - by using colors and imagination - to get back what they want. There are things that you can and you should try to fix, and it’s definitely better to do it together with other people.

<< They went back home.
They were tired but they felt close, special. 

And strong.
...To lose your tail
and then to find it.

Nothing was impossible.>>

You can

 

"The wind came, and then the rain, 

and then the storm. 

It was dark everywhere. Around and inside. 

After that, the world had been ther before, 

was just gone forever.  

It was no longer recognizable. 

There were only ruins. And so, they left. "

 




"YOU CAN" talks, in an indirect, delicate and poetic way, about the 

terrible experience of  the loss of a close family member, a death that 

destroys the life of a child and his family... a chasm that opens up... 

but it's not the end of everything.  

"YOU CAN" talks about a great pain but also describes the possibility to 

overcome it in order to be able to find a new way of living together: 
 

"It takes commitment, strength and effort, it takes words and silences, 

and memory. But you can do it. "
