Not All Alone

It is the first time Lars goes to school on his own. He decides to walk backwards, in order to keep his mother and the house in sight for as long as possible. The way to school goes through a dark and scary wood. Walking backwards is not easy. Lars is struggling to make it to school in time for class. Then he hears noises from behind the trees … He is not alone!
