Synopsis:
Jovan, a 10 year-old boy born with cerebral palsy, has created a fantasy world as a means of escaping reality. His comfy routine is upset by a friendship with a girl called Milica. She slowly breaks down the wall Jovan has built around himself to guard against emotional damage and invites him to an adventure – they have to free her father from the clutches of Milica’s stepmother, whom Milica believes is a witch and has put a spell on him.
