Synopsis
Once a very famous French short fiction film Red Balloonis a story about a friendship between a boy and a rubber balloon. In this strange film the balloon follows the boy like a faithful dog. However, the society does not accept this unusual friendship. A group of naughty boys throw a stone at the balloon and it dies. As a sign of protest, all the balloons across the city come to get the boy and take him high above.
In this story, elements are replaced by other props of contemporaneity. A lonely man in a big city buys a life-size woman doll and creates a relationship that again provokes reactions from the environment. The story seems like a tragic love tale. Instead of boys, a group of hooligans comes along. Finally, all the city dolls come to pick up the unhappy little man and take him along.
