Overview
A court takes 9-year-old Mario away from his abusive family and entrusts him to a childless couple. For the three of them, living together is difficult and often painful, since they come from two different worlds. To cope with loneliness and displacement, Mario creates his own world, where he meets Schad Sky, an imaginary friend.
