Fly balloon, fly away! Please fly… (Albert Lamorisse “The Red Balloon”). Keep some toys! Keep at least one! He had a dream: a kite. He presents his childhood toy-airplane to a boy and flies its kite which didn’t want to take wing, and… flies himself. Dedicated to all champions, to all who defied gravity, and to all who conquered pain and weakness.
