quarantine kids

about our project

While being on the pandemic lockdown with two small children and totally isolated from adults, I reached out to other parents for emotional support in a desperate attempt to keep it all together. To my surprise, other families were not doing much better either, urged to juggle homeschooling, working from home, preparing healthy meals, parenting kids and trying to find time for themselves. 

I signed up for one of the group chats on a social network where I came across funny stories of covid quarantine times from all over the globe. It made me realise that families have similar values no matter what nationality they are and which country they live in. It is equally important to parents in Latin America, Europe, Africa, or Australia that their children eat hot meals, get a decent education and spend more time reading rather than playing with their gadgets.

It is when I got this idea of making a documentary series about Quarantine kids all over the world. I teamed up with my friends across the continents to gather stories from all over the world to make the project happen.

our documentary

The main goal was to document this unique situation when the majority of the world population had to stay at home, to show how children in different countries spend their days on quarantine, how different different were lockdown rules from country to country, what kids like and don’t like about being isolated and online schooling.

At the end of each episode, the children answer the question: “what will you do first when the quarantine is over” and all the answers are very different. 

I hope you enjoy watching it!
