How do the kids of our times play when they are free and unsupervised. Without the guidance of adults, without the educational efforts adults often try to associate to playing.
They are kids before adolescence and the storms that will change the way they play. They are kids of our times, brought up by confused adults, amidst overpowering technology and apocalyptic visions. Yet, they need no phones or tablets. A stick, a ball, the sea, each other. It's more than enough. It sparks wild games, that look aggressive but aren't. Its more a flame that longs for the world, its lights, its shadows.
