It is a series based on storyboards made by children and teens from around the world: all on the theme of Peace. When Peace means not only solidarity, environmental conservation, non-violence, and cooperation, but also food, water, and education. Synopses of some Episodes: SHARING WITH OTHERS: In a hive, the bees are wasting their honey. As the hot season sets in, the flowers start to wither, and the bees find themselves in a tricky situation. A kind-hearted butterfly helps them, and the bees learn not to waste food. FREEDOM: A young boy is trying to free a dove from the cage where it is imprisoned, but he can't do it by himself. With the help of two other children, the dove is set free. THE BLUE APPLE: A young couple is taking a walk-through beautiful countryside. The boy takes a blue apple from a tree and bites into it. He stops, hearing a cry: it is the apple - symbolizing our planet - trying to defend itself from man's attack. THE BLACK CAT: Three little cats are playing in the woods, but they leave out a black kitten that would like to play with them. When the three kittens fall into a hole, the black cat comes to the rescue, and the four soon become the best of friends. THE HELMET: In a desolate post-war landscape, a child uses a helmet as a pot to plant a seed. A soldier helps him, and we see the growth of hundreds of green plants from a mass of discarded helmets.
