Synopsis:

Comments:
Just Kids (the international title for Mensjesrechten) is a documentary series for children about children's rights. It features stories from the perspective of a specific child from the Netherlands and other countries around the globe. Just Kids encourages children to think about the world and discuss amongst themselves, at home or at school. Our goal is to stimulate reflection without prejudice or criticism and to make children aware of the fact that every child has the right to be happy.
