Synopsis:
A bunch of kids in a village spend their school holidays playing creative games in which they use their wit and imagination, along with their former teacher, now a bohemian painter, Duarte. The artist inexplicably disappears and the children believe the mystery may have something to do with Pumariño, a pariah in the village who seems to have some clue, and whom they follow up to a house in the outskirts. Upstairs, it is full of paintings. Pumariño invites the children to get inside one of the paintings, as Duarte is in there, according to him. So, as they try to find their lost friend, they enter a new, unknown world.
