Frank, surprising, alarming: children show us what they think of our world. Playtopia combines the real and the imagined in a playful documentary film with whimsical and magical elements.
PLAYTOPIA is a hybrid documentary where a filmmaker explores the minds of eight children through a magical object called the Playtopia Machine. Together, they imagine The Good Life and The Bad Life, reflecting children's views on power, love, money, hierarchy, and the future. The film asks: Are we preparing kids for a world worth inheriting?
