How would we manage if things didn’t have a name? Do we still have access to a world of a thousand potentials, which we used to belong to a long time ago? The directors Jolika Sudermann, along with Hilde Labadie and Dwayne Toemere, research the movement, sounds and behavior of children who are right at the cusp of learning to walk and talk. Together they try to take themselves back to that exact time, a period they had long forgotten: at that exact stage where something can be anything.
