Südtiroler Kulturinstitut: Leon zeigt Zähne

Leon is shy. But he no longer wants to be. His father, who is also shy, can't help him either. "Show your teeth!" is his only advice. But how does that work? Leon finds the answer in his grandmother's women's magazine "Cordula. With the supposed communication tips and tricks, father and son begin their mission. First, they have to name their "problem areas," write them down on a list and hang it on the refrigerator, then work through them. For example, Leon buys his guitar teacher Udo a toothbrush and mouthwash so that he no longer has bad breath. He makes it clear to his classmate Quentin that he will play soccer during recess from now on. And when Leon makes friends with Ida, even jumping off the three-meter board is a piece of cake. Silke Wolfrum tells a humorous story about accepting one's own weaknesses and turning them into strengths, about courageously jumping over one's own shadow and sometimes having to put something at risk in the process.
