A war is about to break out in the country, Vincent, son of a master glassworker with strong pacifist ideas, falls in love with Alliz, a girl who has just arrived in the city and who happens to be the daughter of an important army colonel. The love that arises between the two will confront the positions of their parents, while the succession of the workshop is in question and the future of the nation hangs in the balance. Usman Riaz's debut feature, which premiered in the Official Section of the Annecy Festival, takes us to a fantastic land through colorful hand-drawn animation and an attractive steampunk aesthetic, in a nostalgic look at the world of craftsmanship, the delicacy of manual labor and the difficulties of running a family business.
