Synopsis
In a world, where everyone can defy gravity and fly at will, being stuck on the ground is no fun. If all you can do is shuffle on your own two feet, then loneliness, depression and despair will come knocking on your door. Letting them come in is an option. Finding the courage to soar is priceless.
