The city… a whirling playground filled with action and characters of all sorts. A place where everyone lives in their own way. Eight short films share their views on the city: a cat that contemplates city life from its cozy look-out, a slew of children who see their beautiful countryside transformed into a sparkling metropole by a magician, a hedgehog that invades the city along with its woodland friends and a little girl who gets lost in the bustling streets of Brussels – the city from all angles!
