On a tiny island topped with steep cliffs, stands up front of the sea one single house. Despite the huge developments in modern aviation, an inventor is obsessed with achieving his dearest dream: to fly using nothing but his arms. For him, only a pure, light, innocent soul is capable of such a feat. 11-year-old Joseph seems to be the perfect candidate.
