This short documentary shows how children work at a young age on a strong self-image and embracing their imagination.

The children in this art class by Marijk Greweldinger are not allowed to use an eraser in drawing lessons. When they draw something they are not satisfied with, it turns out to be a major challenge. When they discuss the influence and meaning of the eraser, they discover that it extends beyond their drawings.

The film was made as part of Docwerk, for the Art Dept program. from the NTR.
