SYNOPSIS
Research is currently being carried out into how formative the first few years of our lives are. Many have looked at this. But what does that mean exactly? And what are the important things in the first few years of a child’s life so that they start it happily and healthily? Through the initiative of the pediatricians at Interlaken, in particular Dr. med. Anna Pirker, a documentary is being filmed with the aim of supporting families with children in the early phases of childhood (up to approx. 4 years). The film will take you on a journey with different families and experts and to unearth new scientific knowledge, experiences and ideas of what families can achieve during this special time. This period is often full of many challenges: keeping up in world of work, changes in our relationships, pressure to want to do everything right, financial worries, excessive demands on “education” and what one should “do”. This project which is currently being developed will give families serenity in how they deal with each other, which will inspire and sensitize important issues during this first phase of life. With all of this, it will contribute to bringing up children happily and healthily.
In addition to the documentary, a homepage and short clips will be created to raise awareness of early childhood issues.
