The Unreal World of Alda
Eight-year old ALDA solves her ordinary problems wisely by putting her imagination to good use.
“The Unreal World of Alda” centers on the everyday problems of an 8-year-old girl named Alda. Alda dislikes eating her vegetables, refuses to use the communal bath at the swimming pool, and she doesn’t want to go to sleep when her parents tell her to. Fortunately, Alda has an imaginary best playmate named Luddi. Whenever problems arise, Luddi and Alda embark on imaginary journeys to faraway fantasylands, where they encounter similar problems that need solving. Upon returning to reality, Alda is able to accept her problems and resolve her conflicts.
