A tender story – a journey of life, featuring a small lonely boy who spends his summer vacation days with his elusive dreams and the airy drawings of his dreams. His only companion is a smiling swallow, Mireille, who listens to his thoughts, his worries, his plans, and his hopeless desires.

And she helps him, with her tender silent presence, to rise high into the clouds, to fly freely and lightly. Until one day, an incredibly curious old man, Leon, appears, who will help him walk the paths of the sky, just as Mireille flies. One autumn morning, Leon left, and he never saw him again. Where could he have gone? Would he see him again?

A wonderful story for children. A hymn to the freedom and innocence of childhood. A story of friendship between a child and an elderly person with a childlike and dreamy spirit. A true album of friendship between generations, combining creativity and childhood dreams. A story about dreams, time, and the small and great wonders of life.
