Chelsey is nervous. It is her first day of school in a new class and she is playing shop with her classmates. 'I'll do everything they want,' she thinks, 'I'll follow their rules, be sweet, helpful, everything, as long as I fit in.' But things go wrong. Her big sister comes to the rescue. Or does she make everything worse?
SUPERMENS gezocht, directed by Daniel van Klaveren, explores how you can simultaneously care for others and yourself.
Playing shop is the class's favorite game. Chelsey does her best, but is overwhelmed. When she closes the shop, the rest want to go inside. When she offers a discount, the others want everything for free. And toys? They snatch them out of her hands and laugh at her. At her wits' end, she calls over her big sister Luca. Then they sing a different tune.
Chelsey is sweet, but Luca is bossy. Chelsey helps others, Luca only thinks of himself. Chelsey follows the rules, Luca makes the rules. And Luca is already in Group 7. He’s going to come and teach those kids a lesson. But will they ever want to play with Chelsey again after that? Or will it be over for good?
