Moving On is a documentary of six Finnish young adults, their growth from the childhood games to the demanding life of a modern grown-up. The film is a sequel to Liisa Helminen’s The Journey Is Long (1993), a documentary following six children for a year as they start school.

Moving On reunites the six children in front of the camera 24 years later, revisiting the familiar sites. Now young adults in their 30’s, the then first-graders meet up in their childhood scenery, in their old daycare center. Their friendship has lasted through the years. As they watch the old documentary together, they relive their journey together. What kind of challenges have they had, what choices have they made, where are they now? What do they expect from the future, what are their thoughts on life?
