Synopsis

Aleque and Issay, two 3-year old twins move to the bustling city of Beijing with their mum, dad, and little sister. They arrive at an empty apartment on the 26th floor surrounded by skyscrapers and highways. Aleque and Issay sleep on inflatable beds and long for their toys. Day by day, they start learning new things, they try local foods and pick up simple Chinese words. Aleque & Issay is a film told from a child’s perspective, narrated by the youngest sister. With a low camera angle, we get to follow their growth journey, transitioning from toddlers to school-aged children.
