Just Call Me Frida
Eleven-year-old Samuel is finally back home after a long illness. But instead of embracing life, he avoids anything that might be dangerous: germs, other kids and any kind of risk. Then Frida suddenly appears, the happiest and most curious little Grim Reaper in training ever. Of all people, cautious Samuel has been chosen to teach her what life is all about.
