This video is part of a project that aims to better integrate students who have psycho-physical handicaps and children with scholastic problems into a scholastic context. The use of audiovisual methods has allows us to deal with some problematic aspects in the lives of the teenagers and to interpret them differently, using an ironic and playful manner that permits the children to reflect on their own behavior and lead them to a greater self-awareness. The texts of the musical selections used on the sound track are decisive for the order of the images that refer to each other as the scenes alternate, like words embedded in others in a puzzle.
