I ACCIDENTALLY WROTE A BOOK

I ACCIDENTALLY WROTE A BOOK

Life is not a book, but it is best told as a sto­ry.
Twelve-year-old Nina wants to be a wri­ter – but her bedti­me sto­ries don’t go down too well with her brot­her Junior. She gets help from the old lady Lídia from the neigh­bor­hood. But can her wri­ting work­shops real­ly help Nina? When her father falls in love with the cle­ver Detti Nina’s search for a good sto­ry leads her to her own. For the first time, she deals with the loss of her mother, who died eight years ago. Along the way, she lear­ns how sto­ries are made – and what makes them dif­fe­rent from life. A wit­ty, fast-paced film in clear colors and shapes, in which Nina addres­ses the audi­ence direct­ly, comm­ents on her own beha­vi­or and that of others – and some­ti­mes even rewri­tes the plot wit­hout fur­ther ado.
