The Kangaroo Complex

2014· 58 min· Documentary

This film raises an important question for us, the parents of different children: how do we bid farewell to someone while the situation forces us into a hand-tohand fight? If a baby kangaroo leaves his pouch at a certain moment, the handicapped child stays longer in the lap of his/her mother. Then the stake is, when does one dare to gently push him/her out? For his/her part, the child also has to prove to the mother that (s)he can become independent.
