synopsis
A young boy called Luka
steps into a timeless world of mishap adventure in a moment of
distraction.
He's fascinated by anything
that flies, and while on his way to do an errand, he catches
sight of a balloon in the sky and runs off to follow it.
Captivated by the image, he
fails to realise he has snagged his oversized orange sweater on
an old country gate.
A taught orange line of wool
is left in his path, which unbeknown to him, in turn creates a
domino effect of pure chaos in his wake.
