Mot du réalisateur
SOAP BOX is a simple story of children competing in a race, but it's a bit like playing in a swimming pool with a foam noodle, the imagination runs wild, and the next thing you know, you're fighting a giant snake in the middle of the Amazon River. SOAP BOX is an over-the-top sports comedy that pays tribute to the imagination of kids in a world of gadgets, animation and puppets.
