Monsters introduces three children of different origins. The families of Roaa, Zainab and Noe Noe all fled to the Netherlands for different reasons. In a recreated bedroom, the three girls draw and describe their self-invented fantasy monster Cappi Don Liii in their own way. They reflect on the monster and themselves and look for similarities between the world of the imaginary monster and the real world. Through the monster they talk about happy and less joyful memories, about growing up in an asylum seekers center and about the power of their friendship and fantasy.
