Magic comes, in the form of a musical instrument, to a village populated by weird people who do nothing but quarrel, steal and get drunk.
A melancholic and curious wayfarer observes the deeds of the people who live in that place until he gets directly involved in them. A series of events will lead him to meet three fabulous figures who had just reached that village. With their magical harmony, they will try to make him change his opinion of the world.
“It’s a fairy tale in black and white.”
A homage to silent films of the 20s with due references to German expressionism and Charlie Chaplin; a poetical vicissitude with sympathique, grotesque or sad characters, aimed at making the audience smile and think at the same time.
