To avoid the fear of the dark in the Land Without Fear, the lights were always on.
Dogs, cats, insects (especially spiders), mice and roosters were forbidden. Monsters. Tents, lifts, closets and cellars.
Because there was a child who was afraid of clowns, all clowns were banned.
And because a little girl was afraid of being trapped in her jumper, in the Land Without Fear they abolished all soft jumpers and made stiff ones that one could easily squeeze into.
A thick fog of boredom soon falls over the Land Without Fear. Everything is under control, nothing new or surprising is ever expected.
To reverse this situation will be Nora who, thanks to her curiosity, will learn about many forbidden and… fascinating things! Nora can’t help but tell her classmates about her discoveries, and word of mouth is spreading fast at school and in the village. In the end, all the children will courageously leave the confines of the land of forbidden fears and in the darkness of the night they will finally see the stars.
